I just purchased an empeg rio online. Unfortunately, I waited too long and now the 60 GB I wanted was out of stock, so I settled for the 30 GB version. I read on a different board that you could supposedly add a second drive to these units. Several questions: First, is that true? How involved a process is that? Is it really difficult or can someone like me whose experience is limited to putting together his own desktop do it? And finally, what kind of hard drives do these things use? IDE? Laptop? Something else?

Thanks so much for your help. This is my first post here, so if I've breached some sort of ettiquete, please forgive me. So far I'm pretty blown away by this forum.

Read the FAQ at Riocar.org. There's a very well written guide on how to add a drive that answers all your questions.
