I noticed that it has a USB Connection for MP3/WMA using the KCA-620M. Does anyone know if i could install a USB hardrive and hook it up to this?

Thanks

 

It says that i can hook up a thumbdrive to it...i dont see too much difference between a thumbdrive and a hardrive. Except the huge amount of capacity. If i were to hook up a hardrive it might not have access to all the songs due to memory issues or something. I was going to email alpine the question but i couldnt find an email addy..only phone numbers. hmmm

 

If it makes a difference, a thumb drive and a hard drive use completely different drivers on a Windows machine. Now I realize we're not talking about a windows machine, but my guess it that a USB hard drive requires a different subsystem of commands than a USB thumbdrive does. I would not be surprised if it did not work.

 

well get this, i called alpine technical support and they dont even know...They said the main headquarters sends them product samples to test out and they havent received this unit yet.. I asked if there was anyone that i could speak with about this and they said no.
