I'm a tech dummy & trying to find something I can put my 500+ CDs on, will this work? If not what?

Yes you can copy from your CD's to iTunes and then sync it with your iPod. You could probably find instructions for doing this on the internet or at Apple Support.

Yes it will work. If i can operate this, so can you. Go to Itunes. com set up an account. Place your cd in the drive of your computer/laptop. Itunes will automatically read all the songs on the CD and ask you if you want to download it (you can uncheck any songs you want to) and bingo, they are put onto your ITunes library. Now plug your IPod into your computer/laptop and it will automatically sync the songs to your IPod, easy peasy!

I don't believe that a Nano has a capacity for 500 CDs . An iPod would. I suggest you call Apple or go to Apple and find out how large so hard drive must be to accommodate that many CDs .

it all depends on how you rip the music from your CD's. if you use standard MP3 codecs you could very well put every song you have on your iPod. the higher the bit rate for the music files however increase the size and reduce the number of mp3's you can store. the iPod and all its other iterations are just players. You need to get your CD music onto your computer and you use iTunes to organize the songs and then you can sync the music to your iPod.you might want to goto a larger capacity iPod. if you only care about the music I would recommend one of the iPod Classics - they can store up 10x what an iPod nano can hold. it all depends on how you rip the music from your CD's. if you use standard MP3 codecs you could very well put every song you have on your iPod. the higher the bit rate for the music files however increase the size and reduce the number of mp3's you can store. the iPod and all its other iterations are just players.

I can tell you this. I have about 600 CDs in the unit right now and I'm only about 1/2 way filled. I have some DVDs in there as well. Still not even 1/2 way filled.

James - I have the unit in my office and only use it with CD's. I'll be in my office on Wednesday and will let you know.

I'm not sure you can backup your CDs directly to this portable hard drive. From my little knowledge I believe, you have to import the CD to your computer first.

Should wrk. I only have two drives connected but they work just fine. I also use a external DVD player/recorder and printer. all have no problem working. Good luck.

Yes it should work just fine. I use it in a multi-disk player myself. I would just make sure to eject/insert any CDs prior to installing the mount. If you eject while the mount is installed you could damage your player.

This is not a cd/dvd drive. Just a casing. If you have an internal slot loading drive you can remove it and make it external. Once it is external, yes it should work.

CDs fall right through the slots.It will hold DVDs, PS3 games, Wii games, and Xbox 360 games.If you need one that holds CDs try Atlantic Nestable 63705079 100 CD Tower Gunmetal

Not sure you need to install software to run this from a small cd, so my guess is it wont

You would need a Minidisc data drive and data minidiscs. The item you asked this question on is an audio disc, not data.

Does anyone have any recommendations for purchasing an external CD/DVD drive? Will any one do?

I don't understand the question. This is a CD output unit. What do you want to do?

I noticed Grayline 410184, which is listed as a CD/DVD Media Organizer. Might want to try that one.

If you have not filled up your 500 gb then you do not anything this big. A 1 or 3 TB Time Capsule work just fine. I have a 12 TB media library and these for great for that.

No... Bought a separate USB drive for CDs. Rarely if ever use it or need it.

Not a good choice for those items. The console is suited for DVD , CDs or small items.

if you copy the cd to a memory stick from another computer and download the drivers that way it should work. this item is pretty bulky as Joshua said. we use it on a desktop computer and it sticks out quite a bit.
