[QUOTE="jtomsic, post: 7829080, member: 551613"] few questions about external HD and pioneer usb compatible HU's because I am kind of interested in trying this since I have a huge external HD filled with MP3s. I would like to put an external HD in my car pretty much permanently to use as I do 16gb flash drives now. First off, has anybody done this and had luck using Pioneer source units? If so, how fast was it able to read from the HD? Was it about as fast as a flash drive...or slower? Next question is I've seen Ipod emulators for PCs on the internet, I wonder if you installed something like this on the external HD if a Pioneer unit would possibly read the HD as an IPod? Would be great if it did and allowed you to use the built in Ipod control features. I have other questions concerning this idea but this is sufficient for now. Any info on this would be great and anything you might have to add or know that I didnt ask would be great to know also. Sorry for the post being so long but I am really interested in seeing this work. [/QUOTE]
