if speed is neccesary, then an external usb v2.0 harddrive (ie designed for 
backup only) is not going to cut it. Nothing external is going to be as fast as 
the internal disk (path is shorter). Maybe he could run the app off a cdrom and 
write to the laptop drive at least till it starts running well
