Frank Wow, that was probably the worst and most incorrectly formatted article I have ever bothered to read through. I was laughing out loud at the glaring and hideous mistakes. First of all, an external harddrive is called an external harddrive. Or possibly an external HDD if you want to get all fancy and get half the readers confused. The external HDD sits in a HDD enclosure.

A HDD player is a HDD enclosure that also contains the mechanics to play back videos and/or images on an external tv.

So, why are you calling external harddrives HDD players through the first half of the article? It is two separate items and should be bought on completely different considerations. If you need more harddrive space you get an external harddrive, if you need to be able to watch the movies on your external harddrive on a tv when your computer is not on, you get a HDD player.

3. Visit a computer technician to format your hard disk?
Harddrive. Not hard disk. Stop confusing people. If you feel that the reader is so stupid he or she can not read the instruction manual of the "hdd player" you feel they should buy for their backup needs, then how are they going to be able to follow your directions when you keep changing the names of things...

Oh, and they come preformatted. The instruction booklet will also lead you through the incredibly easy process of formatting them, in case they are not formatted. So, save the technician a laugh and save yourself some money and just read the instruction booklet.

Oh, and whats with number four... I thought the whole idea you where forking was that the HDD player had a built in harddrive? Oh, what's that... you use incorrect english as well. Ah, that makes perfect sense. You mean to say that they should purchase a HDD player where the harddrive is included and does not need to be purchased separately... And all of a sudden you seem aware that the included harddrive is already formatted. Is this point written by the same person as the rest of the article?

Geez. Just stay - off - the internet.		 8/12/2008
