I believe it is safe. 85% sure. I was just about to say, you might want to back it up first... *smashes head against keyboard*

If it's a regular external drive go for it. They're nothing more than standard drives in a fancy case. I wouldn't defrag a flash drive though...
Might take slightly longer with the USB interface though...
