Media Drives

Nu-Centz

Hi Lads

Just lookin for a bit of advice is possible. I am going to buy my brother a Media Drive for Christmas. Was hoping to pick one up for under €70 if possible. Does anyone know of anywhere either online or off that I would be able to pick one up for around this price?

Thanks for your help

Do you want one that has its own memory or does he have his files on another drive?

it should have its own memory... i want to take files from a hard drive and copy them onto this..so he just has to plug it in and watch them?

It's pretty cool (a copy of the WD, western Digital version), but not what you are looking for I dont think, this doesn't have its own memory, as in - you cant store movies on this device, just use it as a passthrough, you put the movies on an external HD, plug it into this and then into the TV

Ah I know what you mean.. damn.. so I would have to buy a hard drive seperately

the hunt continues!
