I use a 16gb flash drive but I always use random play--sometimes it freezes when loading--but if I switch to cd then back to usb-it seems to always work fine. I've had no problems with sony or Philips mp3 devices--just seems to lock up when first reading flash drives--it is a little slow at reading files before it begins playing--I'd say about a minute delay-not a problem. Display information depends on what is available on flash drive--ir title artist album are provided it will display them--though you have to turn on the display by using the remote 'display" button or it just gives numeric info I use a 16gb flash drive but I always use random play--sometimes it freezes when loading--but if I switch to cd then back to usb-it seems to always work fine.

If they'r enot going to jump straight to 150GB or more, why even bother? Solid-state memory has already exceeded 32GB and has MUCH better performance attributes, including durability, energy/battery life, and flexibility.I will hold out for either a 1TB version or 64GB flash disk (or 32GB Flash disk + CF card expansion capability). And forget it if they try to ram some proprietary codec down my throat!

I'm getting a 16 GB sandisk extreme 3 sdhc card very soon. Like by this weekend and I will try it out.

For me, it's not a big deal with updated storage as 64GB would suffice the "app twitch" i'm experiencing. I have an 80GB classic right now, and have about 20GB free but I'm not going to say I would complain about a 128GB touch. ;-)I care more about the updated hardware components (camera, etc) than I do about storage capacity when it comes to iPods.With the integration and creation of 64GB flash modules, there's two options that I see. It's either Apple makes the case smaller and keep a single 64GB module to save on space and integrate more and faster hardware components, OR (what everyone else is speculating) is integrate 2 64GB modules to make it a 128GB Touch...which would be saweeeeet!!</rant> For me, it's not a big deal with updated storage as 64GB would suffice the "app twitch" i'm experiencing.

Bob, I do not know for sure that your Sony will accept the 16gb but your instruction book should say. If you no longer have the manual you should be able to go to Sony's website and download the manual in pdf format.

I put a MP3 file on my 32GB SDHC card, played fine. The next size up, 64GB, requires SDXC which is a different file format, haven't tested.

Thank you for the information. Since the 32 gb is only $50 more, it would make more sense to me to go with that one and then I can add whatever music I want, whenever I want and whatever genres I want and have an incredible personal jukebox. But I'll keep in mind what you said and I can always change my mind and drop down to the 16 gb. And no, I don't care about the video. If the 16 gb does not have the video function, that might be the way I would go then. Why don't these places just make music players at a less expensive price for those customers who don't want every electronic function that is available at the higher prices?

If the mp3 player accepts Micro SD cards, it is. If the mp3 player accepts Micro SD cards but of a lower memory level, you will not get the full advantage of the 32 GB available in the card.

Hi there! Maximum songs that can be stored here on Sony NWZE384 8GB depends on its bitrate. Here are the tables: Bit rate: Number 48 kbps 5,150 64 kbp 3,950 128 kbps 1,950 256 kbps 950 320 kbps 750 Most of the MP3s are under 128 kbps, but some ate under 256 kbps. So I would say it can be at around 2000 songs. Hope this helps. -Ely

Remember to update your flash bios for the player. Mine is also a 16gb version and I had purchased it recently; however, there still were two versions of a newer firmware on Creative's site...so follow their directions to update that first and then try your card. I just got a 16gb card as well and it works just fine...

Hi there. I have 32 gb flash drive and am able to get into subfolders without any problem. Also tried with phone storage with in 64gb and not issues. Able to play any song from the root and sub folders as well.

The last 7Gb on your Classic! I think you are already effectively maxed out, as our iPods need a bit of breathing room and the 7gb would be that room.

I'm going to ask you one more question if you don't mind. If I just want the best player I can find to listen to music and don't care about lists, album art, interfaces or anything else. I just want to put my songs on the player and listen to them in the order they come up, which do you recommend? (Can you tell I'm an old lady and just love to listen to music? LOL!) All that matters to me is good sound, ease of putting songs on the player, number of songs I can add to the player and how long it will play music on one charge. Even the Cowan 160 GB player sounds interesting to me.

This is more a question than an answer. First, I have several (4) Sandisk Fuze 8GB MP3 players, the older model. I've used 16GB micro SDHC memory without any problems. The SanDisk company advises not using 32GB memory. For those using 32GB, what problems have you encountered, if any? Please note that I do know that the newer model, Fuze+, is able to handle 32GB. But after buying my wife the new model, I rather stick to the older Fuze.

The flash will play at a 16 gb format So I would say so will the Micro SD card..

It doesn't say how many GB to use. I guess you can use up to 32 GB. I have another player that the max is 32gb.
