I am not so much on the techie side so pardon the noob question.  I am planning to purchase an external hard drive so I can just install there my wallets and for mobility.  Is this advisable?  If not, please give alternatives for someone like me who's always on the go.  Thank you in advance!

In my own perspective it is not advisable to install wallets from your hard drive just in case it can be  corrupted with virus because if you will accidentally connect it to a device infected with virus such as Trojans then your dead. If you are just putting a little amount of coins then better to choose legit web wallets, but, if it will be a huge amount then desktop wallets I prefer.
