Yes, you can get an external HD and manually install it. I think last time I looked a 1 TB HD was around $80. There's no "official" external hard drive yet, which is part of the reason I haven't done it.
I'm not a game designer, but I think they store some stuff on the hard drive so the game runs better and faster. There are also semi-regular updates to fix bugs and add features (assuming it's online, which is borderline mandatory). You still need the disc regardless.
Perfect info. I get those HD's for free so it may be ok.
