Copy MP3 onto the Internal Hard Drive - masmullin - 01-03-2012 11:39pm

Can I copy MP3s from a flash drive on to the cars internal HDD? If so, how?

No, the hard drive has allotted space for 10 cd's in full quality. I use a USB Hard drive in the centre storage, although frankly a decent size usb stick will do.

Im using a 32G USB stick at the moment, however Im worried that the USB stick is a drain on the battery (the stick has a light) and I've already forgotten to unplug it a few times now.

Who listens to CDs now adays anyway?

The light is an LED, I would be very suprised if it drained the battery even if left plugged in for a whole month and the car locked and unused...

It doesn't switch off after the 10 minutes that the Nanny State (aka LR) allows you to have the audio powered up?

I did a test with a USB Desk lamp that i could see outside the vehicle, the USB ports in the centre consol switch on and off with locking/10 min shutdown. So no power drain from leaving any usb devices in.
