I want to buy a HD media player (either a WD or Asus)
My question is that will a external 3.5inch hard drive work on the media player?
The 3.5inch drives come with built-in programs & i know we can disable it but it causes a lot of problems (i read many user reviews on cnet & amazon)
So can anyone who has such a setup clarify my doubts?
Also, is the usb 2.0 (480 Mbits/sec) speed/BW enough to play 1080p movies?? (i read about stuttering problems on various other sites)
it's a bit urgent..
3.5inch drives:
Seagate Free Agent 500GB 3.5-inch USB External Portable Hard Disk Drive
WD My Book Essential 500GB
