I’m not sure what you mean by “external” hard drive. The word seems irrelevant."[/i]

External means outside the PC.
Internal means installed inside the PC

If (s)he's an ex-spurt, that implies (s)he's no longer a spurt. So maybe (s)he has evolved from a spurt to a drip? Slowing down like that would likely be positive progress (as opposed to the much more common negative progress).
(apologies for the limitation of pronouns to only 2 choices).

Wow, so unknown sex is no longer referred to as male in the <American> English language?
Sorry, I'm not pandering, even though an "it" may be much more appropriate.......
