---++ General information
Xclef makes two harddrive players, the HD-500 and the HD-800.  Model 500 uses a 2.5" disk, while model 800 uses an 1.8" disk.  For information related to Multichannel's flash player MT-500 see [[http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/XclefMT500][XclefMT500]] wiki page.
