Rockbox and Compact Flash
Llorean:
I was just commenting on your statement "Rockbox supports only up to 128 GiB" which is very absolutely untrue. As I said, clearly, the only limitation is the hardware, so I don't understand the point of your following comments. You proceeded to repeat "Yeah, but what if the hardware won't support it" which is something I'd already covered.
As it stands, even if you can't access more of the disk from the PC it's still quite possible to use it within Rockbox, as Rockbox can be compiled to see multiple partitions and thus you can copy data to it in two phases (copy it over, move it to the other partition, then copy the remainder over).
See http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/BigDisk for more details.

im useing a 16GB card (at this time for intermediate use...need to get the 32 put in) and im experimenting with the possibility of putting SD cards in the pod at the same time (one CF card adapter that has one or two SD/MSD slots) to get more expandability...

Cowon Х5 + CF Pretec 16 and 32 Gb (233x) + last Rockbox - All work

Pretec 233x 32GB into a iHP-140 (svc 19572 w/ RTC,) had some initial partition corruption problems, fixed after disabling Database Auto Update.
Something to watch out for: the Pretec case is metallic.
