A what sorry? I was thinking about getting one of these http://direct.asda.com/Verbatim-320GB-53004-Portable-Hard-Drive-USB-2.0-Red/000507947,default,pd.html

Surely then I can load it with films music ect play it back through the TV and also use it for storage to record from the TV

Id be interested to know how large a full length movie would be.
If I had to guess, your TV would most likely want to see a FAT32 formatted drive which has a maximum file size of ~4gb.

If a full length film is bigger than that it wouldnt work.

I just sold 3 usb3 1.0tb for £50 each on eBay, could hav had one of them :(

Look for USB 3.0 and make sure it's 2.5" so you won't need to plug it in to a wall socket
