Hi I recently bought a new computer with an m.2 sdd added to it but it has very limited space. To keep costs down I decided not to go with a internal hard drive...wups! Now Im looking to buy a external hard drive to store games on and play them using a usb 3.0 or the usb 3.1 connection (may buy a sdd internal hard drive and put it in one of those cases you can buy to make it external).
Is this safe to do? Will the games be impacted in gaming performance in any way apart from loading screens take longer? My new computer has a very good graphics card will the graphics card full potential not be reached?
Also very importantly will playing a game off an external hard drive damage my computer in anyway such as the usb ports.. motherboard or the external hard drive from constant use?
Would be really grateful to get some info on this as the internet is kind of lacking answers. Thank you!
