To add, I came across a user in a different V40 forum that is using 2.5" hard disk (1TB). So it is possible, but seems some Western Digital disks do not work (reason is not clear)
Also note that some users are reporting that the player does not handle mp3s with variable bit rates (VBR) very well.
Another thing that might affect the readability of the drive is if it's formatted as "FAT32" vs "NTFS". I cannot confirm this for V40 but many other players, tvs, etc. are not capable of reading "NTFS" formatted drives.
