A new pci USB 2.0 adapter card would be your most cost effective option. These Dell computers don't have may options for motherboard upgrades. With a computer of this age you money is best spent if you save-up for a new modern computer. This $10 part should be compatible with your Dell. It is USB 2.0 show your external hard drive should transfer at its maximum rate.

A note about nomenclature: memory refers to the solid state chips on the memory card. It is short term memory.
Storage refers to the data on the hard disk. it is long term storage.
If your computer says it is short on memory - then you have too many applications open and need to close some of them. 1 GB of memory is the maximum that your Dell can use.
Good Luck
