GOOD NEWS! PCMCIA card can now support 8GB memory card!

I ordered a PCMCIA card from ebay about 1 years ago, the seller said it can only support up to 4gb memory card. In order to make a PCMCIA card support 8gb memory card, you need the following items:

PCMCIA CARD, SanDisk Memory Stick Duo Adaptor, San Disk M2 Adapter and SanDisk M2 8GB memory card

GOOD NEWS! PCMCIA card can now support 8GB memory card!-pcmcia-card.jpg

Insert all of them ( SanDisk Memory Stick Duo Adaptor, San Disk M2 Adapter and SanDisk M2 8GB memory card) into a PCMCIA card, you should be able to load 2000 songs into your BENZ

GOOD NEWS! PCMCIA card can now support 8GB memory card!-insert-pcmcia-card.jpg

An average song equals 4MB. An 8GB micro SD card holds 8,192MB of data. So 8,192MB divided by 4MB equals approximately 2,000 songs.

Now let see if our COMAND system can or cannot read the 8GB memory card

No. I've been using 16g SD cards since I got the car in 08. Just need the right PCMCIA adaptor. Currently using 32g CF.

I dunno about you guys, but the songs I download are between 7-10MB in size each at 320kbps, leaving me only with about 1,000 songs for 8gb of storage.
