RNS510 USB max capacity.....
« on: 18 September 2015, 13:07 »
I've updated my firmware to 5269 and I know the SD card will support 32GB but what is the maximum size USB stick I can use ?

I tried a 128GB (optimistically) but that doesn't seem to work, 64GB ok ?

Thanks.

I've got a 64GB in mine and it's fine. It's a 2012 model.

I had a 500Gb Western Digital quite happily running off an RNS510, you might want to update the MDI if its out of date.  That helps with the USB.

Bugger I just sent a 128GB USB stick back do you think that would've worked with an MDI update ?

I'll try updating the MDI and test with some other USB drives I have.

It should work fine, need to ensure its formatted FAT32 too.

I'm struggling to find a drive/stick to work with the stereo via MDI cable.

I formatted this one with FAT32 and less than 1000 mp3's per folder but it gave a media error:

Can someone recommend a good size (128GB or larger) stick or drive that works ?

Thanks.
