Hi - does anyone know if there is a limit to the size of USB flash drive you can use? I've a 2007 Vantage....

Thanks.

No idea - I think I've used 16g ones ok but you wouldn't want to put too much on one as navigation through the music is fairly painful

According to the manual it only supports USB drives formatted using FAT32 file system. If you're using Windows to create your flash drive then Windows won't format a FAT32 partition larger than 32GB.

Having filled up a 128 Gb ssd in an USB caddy I can second this! Think I did format it fat but it's un-navigable. I console myself that nothing sounds better than CD's and it holds 6 in the dash.
