This will probably be a question for garrett as he is the master. I hate to say it but I purchased a 60GB drive that was not from here or from garrett for that matter, to upgrade from Z2 to Z3. Loaded the drive and it works perfect, never had an issue with it. With keeping up with the times I would like to load the latest software to the drive for maps and Gracenote and all that, but I look at the version that I currently have installed is 3.0000 as listed on the service info screen. Now would I be ok to load the new Gracenote update and the map update when that comes out? Or will I have issues due to version number. Thanks in advance.

No issues. I just did the CNDV-900HD upgrade. See my post here:

Thanks a ton man I appreciate it, I replied to your pm. Just thought of one other thing, I know that Pioneer says that you have to update the ROM to be able to update to new gracenotes, is this a true statement? Thanks

Only if you have a native Z3.

So when you say native you mean from the factory I am assuming?

When Garret uses that term he does indeed mean the Z3 came straight from the factory as a Z3, and was NOT upgraded by you or anyone else up until this point.

Cool thanks that is what I thought.
