Not if it will not work with your controller.

Always used a D2 and it worked fine no problems at all with using it.

Read the manual you have to reformat to Fat 32 for updates which means you have to wipe your drive & Pioneer only supports Fat 32 and is my far the best controller out there.

What? Never had to do any of that to do any of the updates. A simple flash drive does it fine no need to use the hard drive at all. Having had my D2 for 3 years now with only need to update it once.

Pioneer will only work with Fat 32 Numark recommend Fat 32 for the D2 if you want to update,so no choice really.

Same for the denon 2500 - will only recognise external hd in fat32
