  Im looking for a small remote hard disk type thing that can be plugged into my tv to play vids off the disk.

  One word of advice, what ever you do NEVER but a non branded hard disk just because its a few pounds cheaper, you will end up with a HD failure and cyclic redundancy errors.

  So buy a good brand name HD (the Iomega is a good offer) I have two LaCie drives and I am very happy with them. So just get a quality drive.

  LaCie doesn't make HD's ( at least they didn't use to), only the outer cases design and little pieces for firewire / usb sata connections.. so inside your LaCie is another generic brand

  • yep, but the point is they use quality-assured product. usually. unlike dodgy-mcdodgy homebrand versions.– airey

  True, but the same goes for other top brands no only LaCie. If you open one of the top HD drive cases you will find a Seagate or Samsung or other know hard drive brand inside, where as if you buy a cheep external HD you might get a poorer brand of HD and thats when you might run into problems later on down the road.
