MacBook crashes with ext. harddrive Tod Seisser

Every time I connect my external hard drive, my MacBook crashes. Is this a problem with my hard drive?

What exact external HDD do you use with what exact Mac, using what specific Mac OS X version? And how do you connect the HDD to your Mac?
And what constitutes as crash for you? What exactly happens?
And who is "Todd Seisser" and why is it included in your thread title? Is that you, as you use "tseisser" as user name here?
