Which Rockbox stable device has the most memory?

<< < (2/2)

TriTL:
search the forum and you'll see that some players as the X5 from cowon, some ipods and the iriver h1XX and H3XX series can be upgraded with larger hard drives. There is even an harddrive replacement guide on the rockbox page (not very up to date but useful).

My advice: buy one of the players on ebay, buy a fitting drive (chinese sellers are very cheap...240 gig for under 100 €) and install it :)
Some people write about problems with "large" disks in their players.
For me it worked to install an alternative bootloader on my iriver.

You should calculate about 200€ for this. Or you find a cheaper player with a bad drive.

Wrong. RAM is "Random Access Memory". Not all memory is RAM. Other types of memory are e.g. ROM, flash memory, or (gasp!) storage systems like hard drives. It's true that many people tend to not use the word in that last sense very often, but it's still a correct and valid meaning of the word.

you're right but only technically - i was clarifying based on the common usage (which is how i percieved the OP was using it, and i believe i was right).

You assumed a specific, restricted meaning (which turned out not to be the correct one).
