Harddrive

Saw this and thought it looked good I like the idea of being able to watch stuff off my PC on the TV without burning DVDs all the time as well as having all my files backed up - I imagine there's something similiar out there for a better price but don't know exactly what I'm looking for. None of the hard drives I've looked at boast you can plug it into to TV, don't know if that means it can't be done or it's just not something people normally want.

Anyone any thoughts or able to point me in the right directions.

Only thing I would be worried about with those things is the amount of video codecs it has, might not play everything!
