I need an external hard drive so I can copy about 300 GB of media from one computer to another.
Anybody know anything about hard drives?
Recommendations please

You can't go wrong with either of the brands you listed, I'll probably go with WD or Toshiba if you're getting a good price on those.

Ok, thank you, I will buy the more sturdier one of the two.
One more question
If I have a USB port on my TV, can I plug in the hard drive and watch my videos from my hardrive on my TV or plug it in my xbox and watch my videos like that? or does it depend on the file type of the video?
Thanks.
