If drive D:\ is your CD-ROM or other Optical Drive, it is referred to as an Internal Optical Storage Device.
An external hard disk drive is any type of hard disk drive that you would connect to your computer using a cable such as firewire, USB, parallel. External hard drives are not mounted inside of your computer and they have their own external cases.
