I went and bought a PNY 8 GB card. However I don't know if it's just my car but when I turn the vehicle off and then turn it back on, it takes about 5 seconds to load the memory card.. It will say reading memory card each time.

Thanks everyone on this thread for you advice.

I am starting to wonder if Sandisk only made 6000 of those 6-in-1 adapters?! and all the C Class owners bought them all because I cannot find anything on best buy or anywhere else?!

DUH!!!

can you post your exact brand reader and and exact brand memory card? I want to be sure to get the fastest combo...

i hate when one bottlenecks the other, would be great to just know what already works FAST from somebody that already has it set up

Check the format of the card. Is it compatible (e.g., DOS format?). What format is your music?

I didn't even think about it, just copied files to a 1GB SD card, stuffed it into the adapter and it worked just fine. Had to select the AUX input. Normal SD is a DOS-like format. If you have a different format, it may not work.

I noticed on mine that when I popped in one of my other SD cards that had a folder on there with songs in it, plus folders with other stuff, it wouldn't read them. I had to get rid of the non-MP3 files. It skipped over my ogg stuff fine but didn't like the ****.

I've had to re-seat my mini-sd cards a couple times in my SanDisk 6-1 in order to get it to read. Not sure if it's the card reader or the mini-sd adapter.

I use .mp3 and .wma (windows media audio) format on my micro sd w/ adaptor or my compact flash. doesnt really mater what card u use, once it fits the PCMCIA adaptor.
Also the card must be formated. you can do so, by inserting the whole PCMCIA card into your labtop. or taking the card out and connect it using an adaptor to your pc.
right click and hit format. or you can format it on the camera you may be using. then add the files back and it should work

You can copy mp3 files from the CD/DVD to the MM hard drive. I do that all the time.

It is possible. It is easy.

Put the DVD which has MP3 files ( Does not matter if you have organized the folders on the DVD )

Now go to Audio

Select the Media as Music Register and then select I think Music register from the bottom Menu.

Then you will have an option copy files to Music register.

then select the folder or folders of Music you want to copy.

then select start.

Its kinda slow but it will copy over the mp3 files in the same folder structure as in the DVD and accessing the songs is fast. 1.5GB transfer takes upto 20 mins

alsi I would like to know , any PCMCIA card adaptor will work right. not only Sandisk. And then in that card adaptor you can use any supported memory card that adoptor can fit. and support ??
