Hard drive questions

Hey everyone, I need some help regarding hard drives. Since my desktop died I got the laptop that is in my siggy and I've had it for a year now. When I had my desktop I had all my music on there with Itunes and I downloaded the music from some server (bearshare possibly). Well I've been really bummed out how I have no music anymore and I want to be able to have it again on my computer so I can listen to it while on here and also to load the music on my iPhone. My only big concern is the amount of space it takes up. I was told that 1. the bearshare or w.e server you download them from can actaully mess your computer up 2. it takes up a whole lot of space. So since this is a new laptop I was wondering if I got a external harddrive would I be able to have Itunes with all the music on there and the server I download it off of (weather bearshare or w.e) on the external hard drive so it takes up no space at all on my laptop?
