Here are two ideas that aren't hard drives as such but they'll do what you want.
A few years ago, I used an iPod 5.5G (later called "iPod with Video", I think) to manage the photos that a group of 20 from my church made in New Orleans during a week-long clean-up and repair trip there. I had to use a computer, alas, to hook up the iPod and the cameras. It worked well and with an extra cable I could show the day's photos on a TV. When we returned home, I put together a slide show with soundtrack on the iPod and showed it between church services for a couple of weeks.
More recently, I went to Europe for about three weeks with two DSLRs, a point-and-shoot, and a small HD video camera. I backed up the still cameras to a 32GB SD card in my Nokia N800 Internet Tablet. I needed a little USB OTG adapter to make the NIT talk to the cameras. I couldn't make the video camera talk to the NIT. Still not sure why. I used Quiver on my NIT to view all of the photos and make a slide show.
"I'm moving to a small studio and for some reason the cable connection is in an awkward place and I need a way to transmit HD quality video and audio no more than 20 feet away. What is the best wireless HDMI transmitter / receiver for this situation? Thanks!"
