I am thinking on buying a gaming edition pvr I know I have to connect it to a pc before recording but I have a minuscule hard drive. I plan on buying an external hard drive. Would I be able to record onto the external hard drive instead or does it have to be internal. I plan to take the hard drive downstairs so I can edit it on a faster pc.

Thanks
 
You would be able to no problem i imagine, however fraps can be limited by hard drives while recording, if it cant keep up the recording slows down, having an external hdd may well be too slow a connection.

Personally i'd free up some space, record to the internal hdd or ssd if possible, and then instantly move the files to the external storage drive.


EDIT: Noticed it wasn't pc recording... leaving the info incase it's of any use to you though.
