Default Add external storage to Zune

Hi,

I am thinking about buying a Zune 120GB along with the Home A/V pack. Does anyone know if there is any way to add or access an external USB drive from the Zune to virtually increase the 120GB capacity?

Thanks

I've not heard of any sort of storage mod like this. There are hacks to use the Zune itself as extra storage, but not to add TO the Zune that I'm aware of.

From reading the features, would I be able to overcome the 120GB limit on storage by streaming media from my PC? If so, this would be equiv. to adding storage.

From what I understand, the only thing you can stream is songs from the Zune Marketplace, so really only helpful if you have a Zune Pass. Good thinking, but not available. If you have over 120 GB of data, you'll have to be selective, or buy a Zune Pass and play your music from there. Sorry.
