RobDH Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 from what I have read, you have to have a hd in fat16 or fat32, you need to run a 1.5 hd if you want to directly plug in play to your usb port. if you have a 3.5 then you have to power the hard drive from a secondairy sorce. on all of that you have very little controll other then volume down if you dont want to hear a song and only plays in order of how they were written on the hd. I am not sure how ssd are with that for I did not find any info. for a regular hd you will have issues from bumps and what not while driving and cause the spindle and such to crash inside wipeing it out.

SQMonte Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Sorry to revive such an old thread but there's alot of misinfo here so I just wanted to clarify. I have a cda-117 and it recognizes and plays music off my 320gb 2.5" external hd just fine. It will break it up by album/artist/song etc. so long as its tagged right. I am having an issue with file structure go I have to work that out....I just assumed I could simply copy my entire music folder which is organized by artist/album/songs but of the 10k songs I have loaded on it, the deck is only seeing about 250....so I gotta figure out the file structure it likes and make the necessary changes. My drive is a Toshiba Canvio Basics 3.0, no external power supply needed and my decks powers up the drive just fine. The road I drive to work is kinda rough and I had no issue at all this morning with skipping music. My deck does bank music in blocks of 1000 and that banking takes a while but I can listen to music while thats going on so no worries there. So hopefully I can get my music collection arranged in a way the deck likes this weekend and be good to go.
