I guess it shows what a noob am I, planning to use Windows lmao. Never used Linux tbh but I get it in these cases


Probably an ignorant question but the content you use is pirated right? Should I wonder about legal issues since I would keep it at home and connected to Internet? Protected of course I just don’t see too deep into the issue


Yeah I know laptop itself is not a problem just wondering about stability of USB connected disk. Got some good replies already I will give it a shot


Can I use external hard drive with laptop for self hosting?
Or is this a bad idea? Reading through !selfhosted, I think I have found a new hobby. I have an old laptop HP ProBook 450 G5 4WU81ES. 16gb ram, solid CPU, shitty integrated gpu, and only 256gb ssd. Barely enough for system and some apps. Battery life maybe 30min unplugged so I take it as an UPS. So the question again is, can I have permanently plugged external hdd to use as extension for this purpose?
