Yes, the FTV can use external drives now.
I heard its limited to what the external drives can do. I have the firestick which i really like but I have tons of movies that i want to direct access to rather than having to switch devices.

I don't have the stick, I have the 2gb box, it can read every movie file on my PC (653gb) with XBMC and it's setup for SMB sharing.

This is what I have, but I got it off eBay for 12 bucks

I get global, ctv, city tv, the cw, bounce, yes, omni, CBC, tvo, ABC, NBC, CBS, fox buffalo versions no cdn commercials and some other channels .

You can spend more and get one of those high tech 50 dollar ones that can go outside etc. But I'm cheap just really only watch the odd local news Android box is feeding me tobwell
