It will play all media file types.... As far as the gb capacity, I have mine hooked up to a 1.5TB external hard drive full of audio/video/photo files and it's never had any trouble streaming any of it.

This player is fantastic! 1. I've had a 2TB external attached and had no problems. 2. This is a stand alone unit. It was not designed for an internal HDD. Thus allowing it to accept outside attachments.3. It accepts all common audio and video files I've thrown at it with ease.Hope this helps.

I am really sure but, you would probably lose 3-4 GB of data because of manufacture formatting, I would suggest go with 2TB.

Yes,it support usb HDD, we have tried the 2TB ones, it can play videos from HDD without problem.

I have not tried. I have tried upto 1tb. If your drive has external power supply i dont see why should there be a problem. However i think i read somewhere that it supports upto 1tb. Anyways i found this product super useful.

I really do not know, but I would think that it is more a question of wheather your COMPUTER will support such a drive. 3TB is a huge drive, but on the other hand, I remember wondering if I could ever fill a 40MB drive. Please remember to back it up regularly. I'll be able to hear you from here if it crashes and you haven't backed it up!

Sorry, I run Windows, don't do "I" products, the actual available storage is slightly less than 500GB's, so if you need 500 I'd go bigger, there is a 750 & a 1TB on Amazon

From the Fiio Website; "Supports up to 256GB (128GB2), will support for 512GB, 1TB, etc. with future firmware upgrades"

Both NTFS and Fat 32 formatted discs or USB sticks are supported. Cheers! Marty G

Wondering the same thing. It says "any hard drive", but does it support advanced format drives (4096 byte sectors instead of 512 bytes). All drives >2TB use this format, and many 2TB drives do as well.

Not that I have found. I use the drive for a huge iTunes library, and individual files frequently measure several hundred MB. I've never had a problem. You might check with Western Digital for a definitive answer, but my experience suggests this drive can handle anything you throw at it.

Yes, you can play music from a USB stick. I've played mp3s from my 8GB Crucial Gizmo. I also tried playing music from a portable (2.5") external hard drive, but the stereo usb port didn't have enough juice to power the hdd.

Apparently the drivers or buffers or something in the interface cannot handle a higher capacity HDD. This is only a case & interface - you have to buy a HDD separately to put inside to complete it. HTH ...

Thank you for the info, I'll take a look. By the way would you recommend a 1tb 5400rpm or a 750gb 7200rpm? Is the speed trade-off worth the space trade off? thank you

You should probably look up the manual.... the 16 GB (if I recall correctly) is not supported, only a maximum of 8 GB.

If you've got the requisite port, there shouldn't be a problem. There's no drivers to play around with, it behaves like a traditional HDD: plug and play.

I tried using a hub but my external hd started beeping when i turned on the player. Could have been the hub but I know it works with laptop so not sure. Maybe a better hub is required. As far as size Ive connected an 80 gb hdd to a 500 gb hdd.

as long as you leave it formatted in NTFS,(which is the format that mine came in with) there really isn't a size limit. If you re-format to FAT32,then it's 4gig.
