You seem to be confusing Memory (Ram) with Disk space (hard drive) ... if you have Low memory, you will need to add more Ram ... if you are short of disk space, then yes, an external HD is an answer ... it makes no difference to the PC, or you, if it is a USB device. Just make sure it has its own power source and does not use the USB to draw power off.
