I screenshots real users’ reviews as follows to prove what I said: To summarize users’ feedback, I get internal hard drive and external hard drive advantages and disadvantages: Internal Hard drive advantages and disadvantages: 1) To minimize setup difficulties I recommend purchasing a kit which includes an internal hard drive with all software pre-installed. 2) Much faster, if you use it quite a bit then go External hard drive. 3) Internal is so much nicer because now I just have the multiplexer and laptop to carry to the car. Nothing to unplug or fall off. External hard drive advantages and disadvantages: 1)  External hard drive is a much more versatile solution. If laptop broke, you could just plug it into another machine. 2)   Its a lot slower t...
