I want to buy an external hard drive for my computer, and one of the products I found was an external hard drive enclosure. Is that the same thing as an external hard drive? If not, please explain the differences. Thanks.
Answer
external hard drive enclosure is not the same as external hard drive.
you can buy an external hard drive and plug it into your PC through a USB connection. once that is done you are ready to save files to it.
an external hard drive enclosure is just a case, an empty case with cables, there is no hard drive in it (it's only an enclosure) you have to buy a hard drive separately. usually these are used if say you have a spare hard drive from an old computer and no space in your new one. you buy a case and stick the hard drive into that, you then plug it all into the usb port.
you should stick to external hard drives (not enclosures).

What's the difference between external hard drive and external hard disk(enclosure)?

Can I use the hard disk for storage as well (movies, tv shows, songs)?
Answer
external hard drive - has a hard drive already installed into the enclosure or case, and you use it for storing movies, pics music etc
external hard disc enclosure - is just an empty case that you can install a hard drive into yourself to turn it into an external hard drive
