[QUOTE="Tommy Ceez, post: 2811965, member: 575305"] Have some success to report Went to Best Buy and bought one of these [URL="http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8247275&st=imobile+power+inverter&type=product&id=1168045340673"]http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8247275&st=imobile+power+inverter&type=product&id=1168045340673[/URL] It provides 500mA/5volts through the usb and provides an AC outlet. Combined with the 500mA from the 6900ub, I was for the first time ever, able to spin the drive on my Maxtor 120gig without a single failure for around 3 hours of playtime, and alot of (on purpose) jumping around the folder structure. Keep in mind thet I only filled 1 gig for this first step, but its working FLAWLESSLY...about 30 seconds of read time, and the mp3 jumps right in where i turned the car off. You just need a USB Y cable. (One with one USB for data and a second exclusivly for power), which Maxtor provides right out of the box. I will update on how it handles more files and folders, but Im cautiously optamistic [/QUOTE]
