You should be able to just take the HDD out of A11 and it will work immediately in Z10. The way the two players index media is different so the Z10 will just ignore the database from A11 and start from scratch. The same with the external HDD.

On first boot attach all the storage then go into Zidoo Home Theatre - OPEN SOURCES - Add source and navigate to the folder or whole HDD you want it to scan.

thanks for that quick question i see that i can use a version of kodi with this player does it use kodi's built player or does it use a wrapper like himedia players used to .thanks darren

It uses it's own version of Kodi (called ZDMC) but it functions like Himedia+wrapper in that ZDMC calls Zidoo's video player by a similar method to Himedia.

Download ZDMC here: https://www.zidoo.tv/Support/release_apk.html
