Hi all, I don't drive a Toyota or Suburu but I thought you might like you know about my experience with hard drives. I have a Ouku model TH8581GA that I believe you all refer to as a ca-fi knock off. I've had mine installed for about a month and have no real complaints but I have found due to lack of the systems documentation it has a real learning curve.

Anyway I have a 500 GB My Passport drive formatted to Fat32 connected to the front USB connector and it works great. I have several gigs of movies, tv shows and about 600 mp3s on it. I originally tried a 1 TB My Passport but even after partitioning the drive to 3 partitions smaller then 500GB and formatting it as Fat32 it still did not work on either usb port. The 500 GB drive worked 1st try after reformatting.

Now I have a question, if anyone else has investigated the Extra settings.
Under TV settings you can select pal, ntsc, secam etc. You can also select analog and different styles of digital. So has anyone played wiyh these settings? Does the unit actually have configurable cirguitry to allow switching from analog to digital?
