Default Couple of questions...

What is the largest proven usb stick that is known to read in our systems? There seems to be some disagreement on the sizes in past posts.

What are these little cards I found in my manual? They have a barscan on the back (what for?). Are they some sort of reminder card to put in your wallet to refer to when you forget how to lock your door (Say it ain't so.)?

I have a 64GB SD card in a USB adapter plugged into mine for music and it reads without any issues. I've never needed to test with anything larger as I'm not even half way through filling that card yet.

[edit]

I just spotted the barcode on the cards is a QR code, so I scanned it to see what it contained. It's only a link to open the PDF version of the user manual with no unique info contained in it, so my revised guess is they are meant to be attached to the keys when first sold so the new owners know how to unlock the car.

Thanks for the response Dave. Yea, to mirror my iPhone library I would need at least 128GB. I don't listen to mp3's when I have a choice so my medium is in Apple lossless format.

I guess that brings up another issue. Can Jag deal with Apple lossless.

Not seen that exact card before but I remember seeing something similar to this in my car although on one of the cards was a stuck on barcode that the salesperson showing me my car said was the bar code used in the build process and could be useful if i needed a new key for example.

Never checked if this was correct.

Not sure on storage size limit, i'd guess it would depend on the file system (fat32, Exfat, ntfs ect) i'd take a guess that the limit would be 128GB if formated to exFAT

No idea if it would play apple lossless. Not even sure if it reads .FLAC

Curious to know now!
