Using extern SSd Drive as a Cheap Substitute for Flashdrive

That would appear to be the USB adapter with your SSD. So I'm guessing that it's working as a USB3 device, not an eSATA.

Now booting and running Bionic Dog (with Porteus Boot Option--- save only on Demand ) from a SSD connected via Adapter to Esata Port of my Laptop.

Am i right as a noob........no need to take further Actions... regarding putting relatime etc. to fstab ?

I'd say you're fine, especially since your sdb1 external drive is a journaled ext4. One access update in 24 hours is pretty minimal, certainly compared to hammering a database or cache with the older atime where every read forced a write to update the access time.

Thanks everyone for Support !
