I have an excellent reason to keep the external drive port:  What if your
internal drive dies?  Mine did, and I was quoted stuff like $150 to fix it, and
a turnaround time of a couple of weeks.  So I just bought an external drive.
It was cheaper than getting the internal drive fixed, and I didn't lose my mac
for three weeks.
