Hi guys,

Hi
Im using a seagate 250 Gb HDD from Tesco £38 and it works a treat , I thinks its a bit quicker than my ipod too.

You just have to re-format it to FAT32 using some software downloaded from seagate's website called "DiscWizard",
This is because windows will not format a usb HDD to FAT32 bigger than 32GB ,
the software does it for you in minutes, then you can put all ur music on it


Here's the link for the software
