portable works fine from external hard disks. If it's not starting it's most likely some issues with permissions on the portable folder or one of its sub-folders. You might be able to get more debug information by opening a command prompt and running

X:\Calibre Portable\Calibre\calibre-debug.exe -g

Change the path above to match your portable location.
