Connect Portable Hard Drive To Network

I have a portable Hard Drive connected to a small media player via USB.
I can then play MP4, AVI, MKV etc. files on my TV through the HDMI output.

This works great, except for the fact that I have to disconnect the hard drive from the media player
and connect it to a PC/Network to add and remove files (and then reconnect it).

Is there any gadget available that will allow to leave the hard drive connected to the media player
via usb and simultaneously connected to my network?

Thanks  Kyle & akahan - useful info.

I'll probably wind up making/buying up a USB switch of some sort.
