  Is a portable external firewire 800 drive OK to use?

  I want the flexibility to edit on my desktop and Macbook Pro, but don’t want to move projects.

  What I want to do is put active projects on an external firewire 800 portable drive. Years ago, this was not a good idea.

  Does anyone do this with success?

  Sorry, some clarification: The issue I’m asking about is the possible overheating of a portable drive vs. a powered drive with a fan…
