You should be good with WD. If you have another option, don't go with anything that doesn't play MKV files.

MKV files are overrated, i have no idea why "scene" requires all HD movies be encoded in mkv when they could just be encoded in MP4.

they have alot of stupid rules, they just stopped using rapidshare

i been looking at this, plays most HD video files, including MKV [they actually recommend MKV] and you can watch netflix.

*edit*

i tried it out with my hard drive that was formatted to fat 32 for ps3 playback....it played mp4's and mkv files but not avi...weird

mkv files are easier to hardcode subs with.......

I have WD connected to a 1TB Hard drive and I have no problems you can pick one without networking up in Ebay for under 70.00

I mostly watch movies etc. that I have on external HD's thru my PS3. But the PS3 does not play .mkv and some other files. Sometimes, I can only find certain shows in .mkv.

Also, with more BRRips using Cinivia protection, I need something besides a BR player to watch them on.

mkv2vob is your best friend......converts mkv's so they can be played on ps3 AND can remove ciniva protection(havnt tested that part out)

But doesn't that require burning to a disc?
