Hmm- that's about the same price that these were going for a year ago.

Does anyone know if this would be an option for upgrading my car player?

No, it wouldn't. This is a desktop hard drive.

I've had good experience with Hitachi and Samsung drives. Not so good experience with Fujitsu. As long as you don't keep your empeg outside in extreme temperatures, any drive should work fine.
