I use a 500 GB SATA HDD in a $5 USB enclosure to capture video from my
camera directly to my latop. It's fast enough to capture HD from my HV20
without dropping frames, so it should be fine for HD playback as well. It
makes for a good portable system.

I think it's eforcity, but I'm sure others sell them as well. The only
drawback is that he charges more for S&H and won't combine shipping, so
each battery ends up costing about $10 - still pretty damn inexpensive,
though.
