I ask a stupid question, can a "Desktop External Hard Drive" work for laptop? what is difference between "Portable Hard Drive" and those "external hard drive"? Thanks.

Gives me a little faith that maybe they have a functioning inventory system.

There is no difference. "Portable Hard Drive" == "External hard drive"
"External hard drive" is the usual term

And, yes, they will work with both desktops and laptops, although if yoy were planning to carry it with you, you'd probably want one of the 80GB or 120GB 2.5" mini-externals (see other threads here, search for Seagates.)

And now a question: once you open the case and look at the drive itself, does anybody know if these are IDE/PATA or SATA drives?

If you are using Firefox with NoScript, remember to allow Seagate.com to use scripts.

I think manufacturers use "portable hard drives" to refer to external drives based on 2.5" notebook form factor because they are USB-powered, hence portable. "Desktop external" ones are based on larger 3.5" desktop drives and are normally powered by AC adapters, not quite portable.

From various reviews on the net, the drives seem to be the SATA variety. Since Seagate is the drive manufacturer, I don't think it makes economic sense for Seagate to use PATA drives inside. Just my guess though.
