Ok, perfect thank you... will do exactly that if connecting to my TV doesn't work out! I see how that guy in the video early on removes the hard drive from it... I can handle that

So the hard drive, once formatted, would essentially be like a 250gb flash drive then? Could it be used to say connect to a satellite receiver to add more space for recording movies/TV shows?
