External hard drives depending on available space can run up to a hundred dollars or more. However there worth it because they will last a very long time and they have about 250 GB of memory. That is an amazing amout of storage space. So you would be able to decide which one to use because the external hard drive would be connect using your USB port. There are some drawbacks with external drives. There heavy a little bulky and most are not protected so if you lose it than anyone will be able to see your data.

Don't know what that guy was talking about. Weird. In Windows, the drive that the operating system is loaded on is the swap drive (unless you've changed it). As you move around the web it will store the temporary files on this drive. That will also be the default location for your file saves, etc. Just go to the other drive when you want to save items to the other drive.
