I'd like to watch my movies on the TV.

Sure you can... no problem.
Take a look at the WD TV by Western Digital.

You can buy one here at NewEgg:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136325&Tpk=WD%20TV
This allows you to hook up your hard drive to your TV and play whatever is on the drive. It plays in HD through the HDMI port, or standard definition TV on the composite RCA outputs.
You can hook up two drives at one time, too. music, photos, videos... you name it.
If you don't have HDMI or composite inputs on your TV, then you would need an RF modulator to change the signal to an 'antenna' signal that the TV can recognize.
Good luck!

Did the passport (portable hard drive) actually work on my laptop?
shygirl202
So i recently bought a portable hard drive, my passport. i removed all the information from my laptop and transferred it to the passport. then i cleared my laptop with the disk that came with it when i first bought it, and started it fresh with no information that wasn't essential for it to work. anyways the first day after i cleared it, my laptop was working very well, and going pretty fast. but then it started to get slow and my audio is horrible now. it makes loud annoying sounds, so im guessing its pretty much ruined. my question is that i want to know if the passport i bought to create space on my laptop actually was worth it. or is my laptop in its worst conditions ever because it is simply old? my laptop is a toshiba brand and is 3 years old. i greatly appreciate your advice.

The pasport is an additional hard drive, its just an external hard drive. You might have multiple hard drives on a desktop computer, but generally laptops only have one internal hard drive. Did you connect the passport to your laptop after re-installing or using the recovery CD to determine if you operating system recognizes what is written on the passport?
Three to five years is the life expectancy of a laptop. Sad but true. I have four legacy laptops that still perform well, but I have adjusted to the quicker pace of my one laptop and two netbooks.
What you may be experiencing is a failing hard drive. It may not be spinning at a consistent speed that meets the drive manufacturer's specifications. Are you a heavy computer user?
There is software available to check the health of your hard drive. Some is freeware and other software you can purchase third party. If you have a local computer shop that you frequent they should be able to test the hard drive.
The passport is a nice additional piece of equipment to have. I have one for each laptop and netbook for backup of personal files.
