My laptop manual states maximum internal hard drive that will work is 1TB. Does this size limit also apply to an external/portable hard drive connected to the USB or would I be able to connect a 2TB via USB?
 
Solution
The USB to SATA bridge in the external drive will take care of it for you.

So, yes, It should work fine(assuming you are using any modern OS).
