My 730n RER says 'No Navigation Database', I can't save anything to the hdd,
Uconnect doesn't work and the Gracenotes doesn't work. Hard drive space says
0.00 gb used and 0.00 gb available. So It has to be the hard drive right ? It
gets very cold in Wisconsin so I ordered the "slightly used" Automotive Grade
hard drive with the new RER installaton. It only took me like 3 minutes to
actually swap the hard drive ...but pulling the trim and everything total like
45 minutes. Now everything works! So grateful for your help and services, a
huge relief.

Received the package and all is well. New hard drive works well and software
update done. My audio device is all working again. Chrysler in Australia wanted
me to pay 3000 AUD for a new head unit all together but the issue was just a
typical corrupt hard drive. Thank you.
Peter: Brookfield, Victoria Australia
I can't say Thank you enough! I have been chasing a non-working uConnect in my
Durango RHR radio for a while. All the forums I searched were of no use and I
was just about to break down and take it in to the Dealer. I found your site
while researching my problem and after reading your page on the RHR radio, I
thought I would try replacing the hard drive. Not only did this fix my uConnect
and Voice Control, but I now have more storage for songs! Replacing the drive
was easy and your website's instructions were spot on. One thing you might add
for the Durango is there are two screws on the back of the trim pocket that need
to be removed to get the trim off. Thank you again for your service, and fast
shipping! Cliff

Solid State Drive Installation went like a breeze, and
cured the issues. The only little hiccup I ran into was that the four screw
holes that affix the drive to the tray were off maybe a half millimeter towards
the pins. They were that way equally on all four. But they worked. Once
everything was reinstalled and power returned the radio worked perfect again. I
am a huge fan! You saved me more than a thousand dollars! Now to load it up with
my music again!
Russell: Louisburg, Kansas USA
I received the HDD yesterday and today I put it in the nav/radio. It all works
super. Many thanks.
Fred: Hillegom, Holland
Thanks for sending the drive so quickly. I have installed it and the system
works perfectly.

The hard drive finally gave out in my 2007 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited.
Funny things started to happen with my phone and navigation. I Googled to find
some solutions on Jeep forums and came across your web site. It only took me a
couple of minutes to verify that the problems I was having were described in the
troubleshooting part of your website.
I ordered an automotive grade new drive. It arrived in my mailbox in 3 days.
Install took about 20 minutes. Unit booted up and navigation and phone came
right up. Awesome product, I can't even imagine how much the dealer would
charge. Thank you for a great website and product.
Dorian: Scottsdale, Arizona USA
My VW Routan has an RER system. UConnect and Nav stopped working. Nav was
saying "no database connected". I ordered a new hard drive on Tuesday; we
installed it on Thursday evening and we're all set. It works great, actually
better than before (faster boot up).
Molly: Webster Groves, MO USA
Solid State Drive I just bought a new 2016
Jeep Wrangler and wanted to upgrade my HDD to a 128GB SSD. Steve suggested the
SSD should be a clone of my 2016 hard drive because it would have the newest
Gracenote version, but then added that RHB hard drives are locked in their
firmware and must be unlocked before they can be cloned.
So they offered to unlock and clone my 40GB Jeep hard drive to a new 128GB SSD,
adjusting the partition sizes to fill the 128GB. So I shipped them my HDD on
Monday. I received the SSD four days later along with my hard drive and it
works flawlessly!

When I turned on the ignition, my RHW radio would go into an endless reboot. It
would show the Jeep logo and then restart. The new drive was easy to install and
it works great.

I was having a problem with UConnect/Bluetooth on my MyGig RER. The RER was
installed this spring in my 2006 300C with a V2 lockpick adapter. After a couple
of months, UConnect stopped working saying "the phone is not available". I
checked the engineering menu and JK VR/HFM was greyed out. So, to be sure that
it would be fixed, I ordered a "used 40G HDD" from you fellows. I received it
yesterday and installed it this morning. I installed the drive, and then deleted
the old UConnect pairing from my phone. Then re-paired my phone to my radio and
poof it works! I'm one very happy camper today!

My REP system wouldn't even turn on. Then I found your web site that said I
should try my system with the hard drive removed. Then my system started up and
all the radio features worked normally. So I ordered a new 60GB hard drive.
Now, my stereo, GPS, bluetooth etc all worked perfectly after installing your
hard drive. A HUGE THANKS for having a great website, great service and more
importantly, a product which does exactly what she said it would! :) If I
hadn't found your website, my stereo was going to get thrown out within the next
two weeks! :)

Solid State Drive Worked like a charm !!! Blazing fast
also. Now if Garmin made their update as easy as replacing the drive. You rock
and thanks, totally saved me from buying a new deck.

I received the 40 Gb drive today just on time, since the original drive went
into 100% failure. Since I am an experienced Electrical engineer, it took me
about 30 minutes all together and everything is up and running. I may be
ordering an extra drive for my spare RHR. Thanks again you guys are amazing..
Middleton, Wisconsin USA
Just want to say thank you so much! We just got the RBZ standard duty hard drive
for my Chrysler TownvCountry van. My husband and I had it installed in just a
few minutes and now the DVD player works again. It used to just say "reading"
all the time. Our youngest daughter is special needs and the DVD player is a
must for trips
Kathleen, Georgia USA
My Cherokee UConnect wouldn't see any version of iPhone or any other Bluetooth
phones. I checked the Engineering Menu and found the JK VR/HFM
button was grayed out and didn't respond. The check-list on your web site says
Bluetooth pairing depends on the hard drive so I ordered a new hard drive. My
Bluetooth is up and running again and my phone pairs with UConnect with no
problems. The drive took 30 minutes to install. Great service, thanks a
million.

Solid State Drive Our Mygig RHB would not read a CD or
DVD; the display always said "READING". The system also had a long (~30 sec)
startup. After installing the SSD, the first screen asked for a security code,
but after driving a short distance it now starts up normally and everything
works. Our system was at software version 33.xx and we are going to leave it
there unless we find something missing. Another successful, happy customer!
Thanks for all your help.
Albuquergue, New Mexico USA
The new disk arrived fine - took me 10 mins to install and it all upgraded
perfectly. Loaded all my music back on and it's all running super smooth and so
quick - I should have replaced this sooner, instead of battling for so long with
the drive that would hang. A huge thanks for your efforts. I originally read
about you from another customer on a jeep forum and they mentioned you had great
customer service & product - they weren't wrong
Perth, Australia
The new drive arrived on Thursday and I put it in yesterday. No issues
whatsoever with the installation or the 2.404 update. I'm back up and running,
loading mp3s to my heart's content. You provide a great service for those
looking for help with their u connect mygig radios. I'll be sure to recommend
you to anyone in need. Your prompt delivery and customer service was much
appreciated. Keep up the good work!

Solid State Drive The SSD installation went great. I
would like to share some of my "before" and "after" findings with you.
WITH THE OLD DRIVE:
1. No serial number or Gracenotes shown.
2. No HDD capacity shown.
3. Would not update maps to NT2014. PND would not update.
4. Slow boot up and iPod music slow to load.
WITH THE NEW SSD:
1. All Gracenotes, serial number and capacity shown.
2. Updates went great from 23.xx to 30.xx to 50.xx
3. Garmin software would still not download.
[ it is a known "bug" that Garmin maps won't update on
50.xx ]
4. Downgraded to update 30.xx, then the Garmin update worked.
5. Reinstalled 50.xx and everything works awesome.
Thanks a bunch

About two weeks ago, my MyGig
started acting weird like the navigation would show me paralleling the highway I
was driving on by about a half a mile. I lost 768 songs on my hardrive, the SAT,
FM and AM still worked but it would not show a list of stations as before and
the voice commands would not even be close to what I just said. So, I thought I
would just re run the last cd update disc I had. Luckily I went to their website
where they warned that running the update while having these problems could
brick my mygig. After reading the symptoms for a bad hard drive I ordered one of
theirs for $138. It arrived two days later. Instructions for installation were
copied off their website. With the new drive, everything works with no problems.
The guy that helped me is Steve. Excellent service. (first posted in the
JKOwners forum)
Saint Francisville, Lousianna
Everything is perfect! I just installed the HDD. 15 minutes only
to remove the MYGIG and installation. Very nice. It was not necessary to update
with the CD's. Everything works as it has to do. Now I can put new music
with my USB key , and new pictures. Great Great really great. Thank you
Hauteville, Rhone-Alpes France
The hard drive on My MyGig RER unit stopped responding so I tried running a
2.404 application update CD. The update stopped and the system went into
Emergency Update Mode. It wouldn't run the update at that point and it
wouldn't turn off . . I had to remove the fuse to get it to stop. After I
installed the new MyGig REW hard drive it went back into Emergency Update
and I was able to run the 2.404 update CD provided with the new drive. Now
everything works great. Thanks !
Phoenixville, Pennsylvania USA
Solid State Drive I have a 2011 Challenger with an RBZ.
I didn't have any issues with my radio but was upgrading the application
software from their web site. The updates went perfect and then decided to upgrade to an SSD. I live in northern Minnesota where it gets crazy
cold in the winter (-30) and the old hard drive tends to slow down when it gets
cold. I am a tech guy but RBZ drives are locked so I couldn't clone my drive
to a 128GB SSD I bought on ebay. I sent Steve both drives. They cloned my original drive to my SSD (while enlarging the partitions) and mailed both drives back to me the same day they received them. I
installed the SSD and everything went perfect, no issues and it's fast, the
music starts instantly! I have also purchased a spare RBZ, thinking maybe I
should upgrade that one too...Thanks for the super fast service!

Nav was working on my original drive, but lost voice recognition and u connect.
All is working now. Keep up
the good work.
Bramton,
Ontario Canada The new drive seems to have done the
trick. The only issue was my Sirius subscription got clobbered by
the application update. A call to Sirius to send the Radio and Traffic
activation signal fixed the issue. Thanks !
Buffalo, New York USA
The Option to pair a phone with Bluetooth was grayed out and unavailable.
Engineering mode was grayed out. Couldn't transfer music via flash drive to
the hard drive. Couldn't store addresses in the address book, and voice
recognition was not working. I have had this car for 3 years now
and it's never worked right. Finally all the features are operating the
way they are supposed to. I'm glad I stumbled on your web site. Your
directions were spot on and everything worked like a charm! Thank you.
Redland, California USA
I think my problem began when I started the engine on a low battery.
Sat radio and FM worked but no maps, no music or disk space. Ran an update
CD and the system locked up; now in an endless reboot
loop and won't turn off. Attempted a reset by disconnecting the
battery multiple times. It still wouldn't turn off so I pulled fuses to
keep it from draining the battery.
The new RER hard drive plus running the update CD
included with the hard drive was fully successful.
Very Happy, Thanks
Saint Marys, Goergia USA
My hdd stopped working abruptly one day and I tried everything to
access it.
The drive was very easy to swap out. Took me less than 20 mins and all I
had to do was remove 6 screws. 2 to open the top cover and 4 holding the
head unit in place. The drive works, thank you for your speedy reply and
help with this.
St. Hubert, Quebec Canada
Suddenly, the HDD music menu had no playlists or anything else.
Navigation and everything else was fine. I received the hard drive
today and it went like CLOCK WORK! All is up and running! I really
appreciate the product and your support! Just glad I did not have to buy
a whole new unit!
Dunedin, Florida USA Music menus
displayed " No Music Files Found" but the used disk space was
unchanged. I tried the 30GB disk image on my original hard drive,
but Clonezilla would stop with I/O-Bad-Block errors within a minute. I emailed "help"
and they sent me the link to the 60GB disk-image at no charge and I installed
that on a new 60GB hard drive. All is good . . 30GB more music space
. .total cost less than $100. Great Service, Thanks
Mira Mesa, California USA
Started getting error "Navigation Database Not
Detected" on startup. I Installed the Disk-Image with no problem,
ran the application update CD and its fixed.

The new drive was easy to install and it works great.

My wife and I completed the HD replacement this
evening and the hard drive works fine.
Indianapolis, Indiana
USA I was worried about doing this myself, but removing the hard drive from my WK only took a few minutes and
it took less time
to put the new one in. Leaving all the cables
connected made it too easy. My music was gone but this
time I'm reloading the music from a USB drive
rather than from CDs.
Telluride, Colorado USA
Received the larger RHW drive 4 days ago and installed today. It works
good and didn't ask for security code. I have 22gb hdd space now.
Thanks for help.
