Sorry, no. The USB port in the car doesn't give it enough juice to spin. Others are now having the same issue with that drive. I just got a 1.8" HDD fomr newegg yesterday, which supposedly works, and the darned thing arrived non-functioning. RMAed it back to them today, and have another on the way.
The reason I wanted the HDD instead of my ipod, is that I like to use my ipod during the day, and it's both inconvenient to remove all the time, and I thought it would be oft forgotten in the car (which I forget to remove it half the time). The HDD makes sense for me, if I can get it working. there's not enough memory in a USB thumb drive for me, even those 16GB ones.
