Hi, my device is in windows OS and I want to use an external SSD or HDD for linux OS. First I used a flash drive and it is so slow even in booting and planning on using external SSD or HDD if it is fast. Before buying external storage will external SSD or HDD will be fast?

INTERNAL SSD FAST COMPARE TO EXTRANAL SSD
Will I still notice slow running linux when using external?
If I use external ssd for linux will I still feel or notice slow using it just like using flash drive?

I tried virtual box but it doesn't support nested virtualization on my end because I want to use linux for development and I need virtualization inside it to run docker

SSD's are always faster than HDD's. There is a reason why flash drives are slower than SSDs.
You can install GNU/Linux on external SSD without any issue and you won't notice any performance issues either. After the installation, you just have to select the drive from boot menu.
Thank you it help a lot

@Rieves ....you can safely pay attention to @Stellaris, what he has said is solid advice.

The purpose of forums is for people to tell many people their problem, and for some of those people to give their solution. Other people who have the same problem can see how they can deal with it too.
We don't want people to go off in comers and solve problems in secret. That way, we don't learn.
If things are not done here, in public, there is always a suspicion of a scam. "Give me control of your computer..." "Give me $100, and I'll solve your problem..."
Please do it here, for free, or not at all.

Couldn't agree more. All Linux forums will, by and large, be a knowledge base freely available to all. Even if you're not a member, there's absolutely nothing stopping you from reading the forums. You just can't post yourself or interact with others until you sign-up, that's all.
Many people passively participate from the sidelines for years.......what are commonly known as "lurkers"!
The whole point of any community is that members expect to help each other out. You give help/advice, and in turn you can receive help/advice. Especially when it becomes clear that any advice offered is not only freely given, but accurate, knowledgeable and useful.....and this advice should always be publicly visible so that all may benefit.....
.....not squirrelled-away in private chat-rooms. That's always a wee bit "suspicious"..!

Oh, absolutely. If you can get 10% of your traffic to interact with the site, you're doing good (by most web metrics I've read). Heck, the average bounce rate is like 50% - people who visit a single page and then leave.
I want to share how I use Linux. I bought NVME ssd with USB 3.1 enclosure. I plug it to my laptop in USB 3.1 gen 2 port and get speed 2000mb/s. The Linux work perfectly and I even have no notable differences with OEM SSD. Check your laptops ports specification before buy enclosure. Mine is Orico
