I mention the toshiba, because some USB powered drives work ok with the
TOUCH and some don't. A lot of folks have had good luck with the
TOSHIBA. A USB drive that has a "fake" partition to act as a CD drive,

You could attach an externally-powered USB hard drive to the Touch's USB

clear to me that you all have a much better knowledge of this sort of
stuff than me so apologies if my question is very beginnerish. I've
