Can i delete files off my computer and use them on my external harddrive?

by mollyannrawr . Updated 15 years ago

After backing up my entire laptop and all its files onto my External Hard Drive.

Can i uninstall and delete files off my laptop once they are on my external hard drive?
and then just use them when i need them by plugging in my external hard drive into my laptop and then use the files and programs on my external hard drive?

For EXAMPLE:: iTunes is a really big file and i kinda wanted to put that on my external hard drive so that i can take it off my computer along with all my music and just use it on my hard drive when i need to sync my iPod and whatnot.

cuz i bought the external hard drive so i can clear my bigger files off my computer and just use them through my external hardrive. when its hooked up to my computer. so i have the files when i need them.

if that makes any sense at all.
