Upgrading the iAudio M5L hard drive

(1/3) > >>

vexecuter:
Are there any advantages to one player over the other?

I was looking for one with a NAND flash drive so as in the future I can replace it with a larger one when they do come out.

If not, then an HDD one is good. I was looking at the iRiver HP140 - is the hard drive replaceable in that (mechanical, I know).

Cheers,

Offie.

Because this question gets asked a lot we try to made a wiki for it:

I don't know if it helps making the choise easier

vexecuter:
Right. Cowon iAudio M5L it is. Definately - looks amazing.

Next question.. can I upgrade the hard drive in this beauty? I've had a google but haven't found anything yet.

pixelma:
Yes, the harddrive should be upgradable but only with a single platter drive because the case has to hold the big battery too. As far as I know 40GB 1.8'' single platter drives are available (and 50GB are announced).

The problem for me was finding an M5L at all but then discovered a british ebay-store that sells a bunch of new ones every now and then. I'm quite happy with it. :)
