Docking hdd. I recently saw some review on it. So I though I ask first before consider it.
I have basic concern that it can copy old ide to new sata or copy to ur laptop and desktop.

The reason I'm asking is can I use with led smart tv. Like Tcl p2 or Samsung smart tv.
Now the use meaning as, not just stream from docking hdd (sata or ide internal hdd) but as a main downloading and streaming those files, videos , music and et, as I would had using external and USB.
I want to convert it, so I can download from torrent and play them as Well without laptop and pc.
Is that possible?

If yes, I can then use my old ide drive laying vacant.

If they a software or app that can make android of smart tv (i.e. 5.5 version) to make it work like this. Or I just install one external hdd and keep on downloading, transferring , watching , then delete one file is full :(

Simple term I want to convert my smart tv as my pc just for downloading and watching movies, music, shows, etc.
