    Normally exterior is going to be better when properly mounted. When going thru the hull several other things have to be considered. Like type of finder, hull material, etc.

    I prefer transom; especially for si but thru hull has its advantages in some applications. Mounting points (exact mount areas) are always of utmost importance. There are a lot of factors to be considered as the previous replies point out so well.
