Mame on an external?
«

I have a 1/2 TB (500gb) external HD and I was wondering if I put MAME (with all the roms and stuff) would their be any real slowdown as compared to putting on my internal computer hard drive....I'd put it on there, but I dont really have to much room to play with.
Thanks.

Is it getting dark in here, or is it just me?

No, there would be zero slowdown. For things such as MAME, hard drive speed is irrelevant because you are dealing with small files and you're not accessing a ton in a short period of time.
