Is it essential for one to have a fan? I am planing on getting a external HD. By essential i mean, should i get one with a fan if i am planing on using it for 3hours a day.

Nop, I currently have around 3External's running most of each day...
I don't know what you mean by fan, but they are standard Maxtor and Western Digital drives...

The HD will mostly be used for watching movies through my xbox360. So it have to survive min of 3hours a day without going crazy and collapse.

I reckon it'll be fine...
Which External HDD do you have or wish to purchase?
I prefer WD...

Also you can connect your Xbox 360 to your computer a couple of ways...

1)Media Centre
2)Media Player Extender
3)Tversity (Thanks to Winrar for reminding)

Well, for movies it might not hurt to set up a small fan facing it while you are watching the movie
