Subject : RE: Downloading OT2013 to External Hard drive

If you make the external drive bootable with a full installation of Windows, and use F12 during boot-up to select the USB or Esata port for that boot session, then you can accomplish it.

However - note that you *might* need to purchase an additional copy of Windows and keep it up to date, plus antivirus, for that drive. Also note that the access time via a USB port will likely be a bit slower (unless full 3.0 support and an SSD drive).

Summary - it's do-able but not trivial.
