Does anyone know if its possible to use a regular hard drive in the unit? Ive found that the biggest laptop drives are only 120gb. Even I put two in there I wont have enough room for all my music. If it is possible are instructions available or is there someone to contact.

If you have more than 240Gb of music, you are a GOD.

How on earth are you supposed to listen to that much?

Fitting 2 120G disks is right on the bleeding edge of what it can do: you will certainly need to upgrade the player memory with one of Patrick's memory cards if you do this.

You will not be able to use conventional desktop disks as they are physically too large to fit the case.

Dude, you just posted that message on loads of forums. You don't need to do that, just one would be enough. Most people read them all anyway

1. Do not cross post.

2. Read the FAQ entry on the topic.
