    Yes...If you have a USB external, you can plug it straight into your xbox and play the stuff. You have to be connected to Xbox Live so you can download the codecs.

    I've seen cases, where if you weren't connected to Xbox live, you couldn't play anything from the hard drive, even after downloading the codecs a few mins previously. Not sure how/why it doesn't/didn't work that time...

    The Hard Drive needs to be formatted to FAT32 I think, My hard Drive wasn't and I couldn't watch stuff. So I have to use my computer to stream cos there is too much stuff on the HDD not worth formatting.
