Does such a thing exist?

Hi chaps,

Not sure if what I'm after even exists (although I'd be amazed if it didnt!)

I want a large hard drive tucked away behind the TV that I can put downloaded movies and TV shows on from my MacBook Pro (transferred wirelessly over WiFi, this is key) so then watch on the TV. I can connect the hard drive directly to the TV or through the Xbox One (depending on which would do it better).

Does such a bit of kit exist and what do I need? Don't mind spending a bit of money to make it totally seamless.

Thanks in advance guys!

Yep, Try one of these.

Wireless file transfer and also has a usb for wired transfer and power.

There's an updated/brand new Apple TV being announced next week.

Thanks guys, I already have an AppleTV but my MBP is SSD so relatively small memory. I will check out the recommendations above today!

Plug in an external HD. I run my home cinema off a 2010 Mac Mini and external drives. All is good.
