Thinking of getting a couple of Western Digital My Book Live to store my movies on. Has anyone used one in conjunction with a atv2 and if so what did you think.

Or any other suggestns. Need to store anything between 4-6tb of films atm. Was thinking of streaming over my wireless network. I'm not that technical so would need to be something a novice could setup.

Thanks in advance.

atv2 USB doesn't support external drives so it would have to be networked to get streaming. I have an atv2 with Xbmc on it and it leaves a lot to be desired IMO. Sluggish navigation and tends to crash often so I'm actually getting rid of it. If you're just using the setup for DVDs and files from hard drives, a boxee box may be the way to go as you can plug USB directly in to it and is only $50-75 more than an atv2.

Agreed! Looking into an HTPC now.
