Is there a way...

bartman32 · 04-04-2007, 03:57 PM

I have a Feb production e92. I'm looking for a way to hook up a hard drive to my logic 7 and see the files through iDrive. I know if I had just waited one more month I would have had the iPod interface but is there another way? I don't care if it comes from an iPod or another hard drive, I'd just like to have access to my music.
Thanks

I am guessing that a device like the Archos AV400 will work as it has a standard directory structure and USB port access. When I get my 335 I will try it. Also - it will probably taek quite awhile to read all the files if you have a 20GB HD.

Even 6FL is not designed for USB hard drives, and is not recommended. There are considerations besides directory compatibility - such as power draw, etc.

yeah but I don't have 6fl. Mine was made in Feb.

There there is no way to connect USB and use iDrive to control it. You will need some kind of aftermarket kit to accomplish this.

You could burn it onto a DVD...
