[QUOTE="lillitnn92, post: 3699616, member: 579974"] just want to add a success story to help out anybody that needs it. i have the Kenwood KDC-X591 and a [URL="http://www.soyo.com/product/Portable_Storage/11/USB2.0_SlimEx_Onyx_40GB_Portable_Hard_Drive/360"]Soyo 40gig SlimEx Onyx[/URL] drive and it's working without additional power source. Soyo uses the same Toshiba hard drives found in iPods btw. case comes apart so you can upgrade to more storage if you need it. it's 1.8" form factor and they currently have drives up to 120GB. i can't vouch for the larger drives, but i would assume it would work fine. i think the problem some people might be experiencing is that you may need to reformat the drive to FAT32. i had thought that i read NTFS or FAT32 was fine, so i left it NTFS. turns out no, after going to FAT32 it worked.
