Before I buy an Internal Hard Drive....

Before I buy an Internal Hard Drive....
....can someone just confirm I have this right.

I have a number of blu ray rips which I play through myIhome from an external hard drive no problem - I also have a number of files in ISO format, and my understanding is that myIhome wont play ISO's through the Popcorn Hour, so what I need to do is buy an internal hard drive and put it in the Popcorn Hour

Have I got that right??

RE: Before I buy an Internal Hard Drive....
I hadnt really looked at Network Shares because Im really not technical - If I did use that instead of myihome, would I be able to play the ISO's from my External Hard Drive?

The very easy way to share folder in Vista

You will also need to turn off Password Protection Sharing on Vista
