What are the pros and cons for placing image on external hard disk?

I use acronis to backup and recover the system and partitions, but sometimes
I found that the image has been corrupted in one of the partitions.
Now I placed the images on one external hard disk which is IDE but attached
in the USB box. Acronis told me that I could not
recover these images unless I use the rescue bootable media.

What are the pros and cons for placing images of backup on dynamic hard
disk?
