Media box needed for kids.

IrishGaz · 2013-12-09 17:12:36

Looking for a media box for the kids to use with storage of 500mb upwards. Something not to expensive as the last one has been damaged. Any places for this. I heard Eason had ones from about €100 euro some time back but not sure anymore and there might be a better deal around before christmas as its a Santa gift.

How about getting the media player and hard drive separately? There is a WD player for €44, posted here. Add a 500gb drive for around the same amount and you have a decent player for under €100.

I got a predecessor WD media player back in 2009. Only a few years ago, but not many people understood what a media player was then. It's still going strong 5 years later, along with the 250gb drive that I got with it. I find having the drive separate makes it easier to copy files across etc. and we can also bring it with us if away for use on tablet/laptop.
