OK, I did some digging and read all of the posts on this list about the Rio Central in General and Technical. What i want to do is make one post with all of the feature and existing hacks to this product, if that is OK.

1. Hard drive upgrades to 128gb is easy to do by opening case and swapping drives. The Central will see the new drive and ask if you want to "Restore as New" (or something like that). Select OK and the Central will "format" the drive.

Dual drives are impossible to install as there's only one IDE bus on the board.

The drive limit is 127GB and is discussed here.

2. You can upload files from Emplode 2.0 and from the newer versions of Jemplode to the Central. See here. Files cannot be removed or synched to the Empeg yet however, correct? You can copy the FID's over but you do not get the nested playlist support. Info

3. The latest version of the RIO software is 1.04 and there is no other 3rd party server software yet.(?)

Any others???? add them here...
