[QUOTE="Down55555, post: 2785525, member: 575167"] I have been reading what I can on this but am still a little confused. I'm looking for a HU to satisfy my MP3 needs but I'd really like to avoid using an Ipod. The option that seems most attractive to me is buying a HU w/ USB and getting me a little WD Passport (or similar) 120G HDD to tote my music around on. The HU in particular I'm liking is the Pioneer 6900ub, I do have some concerns though. Any answers about this HU in particular would be great, but I'd even love to hear answers about USB HU's in general, too. 1. How is the navigation on the HU using a portable hdd? 2. Size limitations? I've heard of limits from 1G-4G on other models 3. Power- I've heard the Kenwoods can't power an external HDD, how about Pioneer's? 4. Durability of the HDD in a car environment- Has anyone done this with an external? How did it fair with extreme temps? Thanks, Jason [/QUOTE]
