External Hard Drive for Imaging?

My laptop's Hard drive is rapidly filling up with planetary image data and I am hoping that an external HD will fix this problem.

After an imaging session, there is usually between 15gb and 20gb+ of data. I do go through and delete bad quality data but it still adds up. I am considering getting an external HDD to free up the laptop's hard drive.

I am concerned that if I use a external HDD for imaging, I won't be able to capture at fast frames rates with the camera. Will this be a problem?

or

Should I capture onto my laptop's HD first. Then transfer the data over to the external HD?
