And of course, the long awaited "proper" fix for the DVD playback while in motion.

Speaking of which, this website claims to do it for many other OEM navi's. I tried it on the MMCS and it failed though -- should probably get in touch with this guy to see if he can figure anything out about the MMCS

What does this mean for us? Are you going to utilize this information to install a larger HDD?

Basically, yes. If I run out of room on the music server, I can simply resize the last partition and image it to a larger drive. One thing to keep in mind w/ changing drives though is the drive in the MMCS is an automotive grade drive -- it can withstand insane temperatures and shocks versus normal laptop drives. So a replacement drive will likely fail sooner than the original.

For more information, the MMCS drive is a "TOSHIBA MK3029GAC"

As I said in the other thread, withstanding low temperature is the key for harddrive automotive application.
Shock is not a big issue for laptop drive either.

Worthy Automotive HDD upgrade? http://www.hitachigst.com/portal/site/en/menuitem.7f4412d47fe92275734beb82eac4f0a0/
20GB additional space than the current OEM drive capacity

Here's Seagate's offering with 40GB top capacity: http://www.seagate.com/ww/v/index.jsp?locale=en-US&name=ST940814AM&vgnextoid=c04bd9388cf1e010VgnVCM100000dd04090aRCRD&vgnextchannel=e3b6ae64e57f2110VgnVCM100000f5ee0a0aRCRD&reqPage=Model

The Hitachi Durastar J4K50 is actually 50GB. But no one is selling it yet?

My laptop is being replaced rather than sending it back with my data on it I dropped it really really hard on to concrete 4 times, but it still works!!!

Ended it up sending it back without the hard drive. Now I know my data and password are safe and cannot be recreated

I don't even have a MMCS, but props to a damn fine hack!

Want to work on disabling the TPMS in the ECU next?
