Best USB Flash drive for console

Here is a flash drive I just purchased, it is a Sandisk cruzer fit.
It comes in a 4 GB, 8GB, 16GB & 32GB capacity.
I would recommend getting the 16 or 32. ( I got the 32)
Currently the price for the 16gb is $7 and the 32GB is $25 on amazon
http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Cruzer.../dp/B005FYNSZA
On average 32GB would equal about 10,000 songs.

Whats great about this flash drive is that it so incredibly small. It doesn't protrude out of the port so there is no chance of it being in the way or breaking it.
I have some pics below to show what it looks like plugged in and to show that it gives you all of the info a ipod would and also shows up on the HUD.

If yall have any questions just ask
Tip: this is a flash drive you should mainly want to leave plugged in, I've already almost lost this thing twice. Although if you get two the second would be great for a key chain because if you look close you see there is a small little loop where you could attach it

you're welcome, now I just need to find a car charger that doesn't poke out to far and isn't hideous so I can plug in my droid.

you know if you have music on your phone you can connect your phone up to your car and it will play wirelessly. but then you don't get the song names and such on my Galaxy S 2 i can even change the song with the steering wheel controls. worked better with my iPhone though.....every time you get in the car as long as your radio is on the aux input it automatically connects to your phone (after you connected it with bluetooth)

Just purchased the same one (32GB) for the Caddy. Love it! I literally laughed when I saw how small it was. Unbelievable.

I bought the 16 GB version for my 2013 Camaro. I was able to put my entire CD collection on there (2013 with MyLink does not have a CD player...)

works great, it will also accept playlists that were built with Windows Media Player...

So how does this Scan Disk categorize your music. Does it break it down as albums or is it one big ass playlist with 10,000 songs on it. I need something that I am able to choose album through my radio with. I can Bluetooth my albums from my phone to the system but this would be nice if it indexed albums for you.

Sidenote I wonder if this one will work the same....

Nice find. If you rip your music at 320k LAME MP3 (and you should be) that 32 GB will only fit about 3,600 songs.

If you take the flash drive apart, you will find a microSD card inside, easily upgradeable.
