You realize that Rio and SCWD are both on the "junk" list?
I will admit that I've used two SCWD's and did not have a problem with either one of them however there are plenty of folks that have not had such good luck them.
Rio powerheads: The shafts are metal and rust and break very quickly. Don't know if their pumps are any better. I'd look at the mag pumps before committing. YES - they can be run external.
