things are not as easy and you wan't them to be. You can't use a regular hd in the slim ps2. You will eventually be able to use an external usb one, but the program is still in the works.

I think its best to use a Laptop hard that way you use power from the PSTWO. Using a 3.5 drive need more voltage, maybe a drive enclosure of some kind.

Perhaps the 'USB Extreme' we are waiting for could also be used with the soon-to-be-released SONY PSP (with its USB 2.0)....otherwise, the Sony's Memory Stick Pro DUO (expensive!) is the only option for watching MPEG4 - based video on the PSP, for now.
Contemplating...
- PS2 slimline
- Pelican Game Glass 7" TFT Screen
- DMS4 Pro chip

Yes the usb extreme will be released soon at , but fior playing mp4s i doubt thatll work. Also the sony psp's movie player is high level, i got a psp , and it is very promising.
