Not sure there. IME, which is hardly all-encompassing, is that it's much easier to make a desktop sound good than a laptop. Or I could say: the typical desktop sounds better than the typical laptop. But I don't truly think that's a hard fact, just a limited observation. It's really hard to compare these things, they are all so specific to the individual setups, H/W and S/W, even packaging and internal physical layout make a diff (I think this latter is a big factor for the DT>LT thing). Just a thought...However, for my particular "infrastructure", which I never did get around to mentioning since it's not my query: there is no audible diff to me between an external USB drive and an internal SATA drive. [I did the test rather than ask the Q, like I originally had in mind before just trying it.]
