Properly supported, formatted and recognized external drives are not a
problem. I use two LaCie external firewire drives and have for years. Most
editors use Firewire but USB2 works too. I have one of them on my laptop
and have captured to it and edited from it without issues. Video, as Taky I
think pointed out, consumes 13 GB of disk space per hour (standard DV that
is), but you need probably double that if you're making many changes and
additions, plus 20% vacant head room on any given hard disk. By that I mean
that a 160 GB drive should never be more full than 120 GB or so.

How much disk space do I need to produce a half-hour video with
Premier? Are external drives a problem?
