Portable disk to stream dvd's
Discussion
Hello All,
Looking at getting a portable hard disk for the laptop so I can have copies of my dvd's on it to watch while away from home. Strictly speaking this won't be a backup disk - it will be used to stream video. Budget isn't so much of a concern, but portability is, as is speed - I want to be able to use it as if I was playing a dvd in the laptop drive direct. What do I need to be aware of / look out for? And any recommendations? Budget is (let's say) £150. Ideally I'd like to avoid having a seperate power supply and it to be damn quiet as well.
Ta!
