Hey guys, I wanted to ask if external hard drives will work if you're using for a newly built desktop pc.
What I'm trying to get at is whether or not a newly built computer (that still needs to install OS) will recognize the USB for a external hard-drive.
The reason why I ask is that I don't use cd's very much and if I can borrow my friends external hard drive to install the OS / Software then i'm pretty much good to go.
Question is, is this do able?
