Does it work if you install a game onto a portable hard drive?

my portable hard drive is not working image

So basically I'm feeling quite reminiscent about sims 2, and I want to play it again, but it's not installed to my new laptop. Last time it slowed the laptop down loads so I was wondering, if I installed all the play files to my portable hard drive, would it work? I remove the hard drive and use it for my photos and stuff too but I wouldn't play sims on any other computer, I just don't want to clog up the laptop hard drive. Any help?

Answer
yes it would but its the ram that slows the pc down putting it on a portable hd will make it that little but faster though, but it would not work on other computers unless they have the sims2 in there registry .Rad

What is a normal/good price for portable hard drive data recovery?

Man

Got to get data from 3 portable hard drives that stopped working properly and I don't want to get ripped off. All three get power and then blink or beep and the computer doesn't recognize them.

Also if anyone knows of a place in Los Angeles I would really appreciate it.

Answer
It depends on what is wrong with them. I'd guesstimate from $300-1500 a piece from a professional lab. You can compare prices at ontrack, gillware and drivesavers the top 3 data recovery labs and see who comes out cheapest. Generally it will be Gillware though, they also offer free evaluations and have an online estimating tool.

Before you do that you can pull the drives out of their enclosures and try hooking them up directly to a computer or try them in a new enclosure.
