As long as you hold the right USB or Firewire interface to match your tentative external hard drive, later no, you won't have to translate anything else about the computer.



And you don't hold to put hard drive or Intel contained by quotes.
No, they are unrelated. As long as you have somewhere to plugin the harddrive and your computer is compatible near it you should have no problem. It will be approaching having a C: and D: drive instead of only a C: drive now.
No, an exteranl not easy drive is just that a rock-hard drive that is External, classification it's NOT INSIDE the computer
Nope, just kind sure you have some free USB ports. If you own USB 1.1 ports, you might consider getting a USB 2.0 PCI card for better performance beside your external HD....
No. An external hard drive is newly a plug and play device using a USB port. There is no need to upgrade components on your motherboard or whatsoever. All you own to do is just plug within your external hard drive into any USB port and agree to the computer auto-detect it and wait for the confirmation that say your device is ready to use.
No, you will not hold to change the processor.

If you are not using Windows 2000 or XP, next you will probably need a driver disk and probably will own to partition and format the drive yourself.
