Have to buy external HD for a friend's iMac. Any reason to buy one bigger than her internal drive?
#3
1. If the iMac has a FW800 port, then the external drive will be about as fast as if it were installed internally, if you put it into a FW800 enclosure.

2. Otherwise, it will be about the same.

3. Buying a larger backup drive will be good for Time Machine--more space for more backups.
