An HDD media player is a type of stand-alone digital media player that is designed for the primary purpose of playing back media files (such as videos, music, and photos) from a hard disk drive. These players typically do not have a built-in screen and are designed for use with a TV or other large external displays. The hard drive can either be internally mounted in the media player itself, or can be an external hard drive attached to the media player through a USB, eSATA or Firewire (rare) interface.
The idea is that the hard disk drive is a spacious and convenient location to store digital media files, and the player can provide playback capabilities without the need for a computer. The user interface offered by these types of players are similar to other consumer electronic products such as DVD players, making them easy to operate from the sofa with just a remote.
The key features to look for when shopping for a HDD media player including the following:
- Video codec support
- Video resolution support
- Video output connections
- Networking capabilities
- Hard drive configuration
