Answer 1

external h/ds only store data you still need a computer to access it.

Answer 2

I've got one of these : http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=97124&C=Maplin&U=SearchTop&T=MEDIA%20HARD&doy=26m7
Been great for me, one or two issues with latest DivX files, but that was no problem for me, as I tended to be using MPG, didn't bother looking for software updates.

Add whatever drive you want, and it will still be cheaper than Ebay probably. Also with maplin, if you have problems it is ALWAYS easier than trying to return to an ebay seller you don't know
