When you are ready to install you usually just have to choose 'something else' at the bottom of installation choices. External hard drive should(might be different) be listed as sdb,and internal be sda, and away you go. Make sure you have the right hard drive before making any changes. Some people say it works slower but I have not notice much difference. Depends on what you use it for. Format to ext4(good) or what you want and make at least a /(root) partition, or you can make ~30gb / and the rest a /home partition. You should already have an EFI partition on internal.
