I've been using this for a year now, I have an external 2TB drive hooked up to it, and I have it wirelessly connected to my main PC where there's another 2TB drive. I have instant access to about 1800 movies. I keep the HD (over 2gb) files on the drive that's plugged straight into it, and stream the smaller files.
It upconverts to 1080p, has an easy to use GUI, and will play almost every file type known to man (except FLV).
IF you have a lot of movies, and are looking for an easy way to view them, this is it. I've tried other players, and this one works best for me.
All my movies are sorted into their own folders, and sorted into folders by genre, such as Action, Drama, Sci-Fi, etc etc. The reason I do this is so that each movie can have it's own thumbnail...
This is created using a piece of software called Thumbgen...

There are all sorts of guides on this software, but I use the "xstreamer" profile, and that's good enough. Keep in mind though, all your movies have to be titled correctly!!!
If you'd like to know more, please ask.....
I've uploaded all my movie art to Picasa...if you want it, just install Picasa and feel free to download what you want...There are about 1500 in there! (they're broken into 2 folders)
