UCI (Universal Communications Interface) USB Disk Drive Questions

Hi everyone,

I've ordered my c63 and am awaiting delivery but have a question in regard to the UCI (Universal Communications Interface) which comes with the car. Apparently it has a USB cable to connect a device to.

I was wondering if anyone has tried connecting a USB hard disk drive to it? If so:
  • what is the maximum disk size it will recognise? ie. could I connect a 500GB external USB drive to it?
  • Do the MP3 tags show up on the display?
  • Are there any rules with regard to file/folder structure?
Any help with these questions would be greatly appreciated!

i was just in Sindelfingen picking up my car and no one at MB seemed to know what the usb was capable of reading. I do know that it will only read MP3s or WMAs music files and nothing else. not sure about size, etc.

by the way, the command manual has a lot of info on file structure etc. mostly pertaining to the media reader (PCMcia slot), but i would assume it would apply to the usb reader too.
