FAT32 40GB Portable HD Didn't Work

So my Smartdisk FireLite 40GB Portable USB 2.0 Hard drive - formatted to FAT32 did not work in the Camaro.

It powered it up but it didn't work.

I thought perhaps it just had to load for a long time but then I noticed - when I add a bunch of songs to a thumb stick and pop it in - it will load the first song and then it comes up and says "Indexing..." so I see it's reading the songs.

When I pop the portable hard drive in it doesn't switch to the USB device automatically like the thumbstick and it doesn't do any type of indexing - sooo... pretty sure it doesn't work.

If I get my hands on some other types of portable hard drives, I'll try them out.
