How long does the unit take to load a 16gig flash drive or sd card with 6000 songs?

I have a 16 gig card in right now... It has about 600 pictures and 4000 songs... It takes a while honestly... My guess is it takes anywhere from 8-15 mins...

You would be where you were going before that many songs would load, I never do more than 100 or so

It is quite responsive. It depends on how many songs or files it has to read from the source to build the catalog of what is on that source, in your case the USB drive. If there are only a couple of files is takes just a few seconds. On a 4gb or bigger with lots of files it can take a while to read and compile the 'catalog' of files. Once it does that it changes tracks (files) very fast. I like this unit a lot and it is a great buy for the money...

Using your computer, you read the file from the memory card and copy them to any device you want. The files are big but with USB3 it takes about 5 minutes for 16 gig of data.

Yes, it does take a while to load when you insert a new device (USB or memory card), especially when your device's capacity is large. So going to "options" to select files might be a better way.

There are several variables involved in answering this question. It depends on the length of each song and the capacity (Or the number of minutes) your memory card in the machine will hold. The memory card included with the machine is limited and holds about an hour or two of data. I purchased the largest memory card available for this machine and it holds about six hours of music/data. It works great and I can't say enough about how good this machine sounds. It's excellent!

Holy Crap! It takes an HOUR or more??? I have a 750GB HD that is probably two thirds full, and when I connect it, it takes like a MINUTE, maybe TWO!!! Sounds like you have a crappy drive, or some other problem!

It has to scan/ find the files on the sd card; especially if you are using a music player like PowerAmp. It look quite a few minutes to scan and add all the media. This at least happened when I used the device.

I ordered this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009QZH7BU/ref=oh_details_o07_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It's a SanDisk Ultra 32 GB MicroSDHC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory Card with Adapter (SDSDQU-032G-AFFP-A). I would suggest that once you put it in, leave it in. Even removing and reinserting it with the power off will cause it to rescan the next time you power on. I picked a high speed device because of the scan time. It takes several minutes of scanning after I've put more music on it. I've got about 5 gig free, so it takes a long time to go through 27 gig of music.

I use a usb 32 gb drive (dont need alot of time in my specific application)

So far I've put 114 songs on mine which is 7.2 hrs of playing time and used 836.2MB.

IT seems it is USB 2. I have had no delays or problems loading up 15 gig thumb drives or with other USB devices.

1 GB yields about 250 songs at approximately 4 minutes each. So 4gb = 1000 songs and 8gb = 2000. A best guess, more if songs stay closer to 3 minutes.

Not sure, I have only 78 GB loaded and it's 29 days of music. 10,517 songs.

In continuous mode I get about 43.5 hours on a 32GB SD card. The card will overwrite old files as needed.

It'll take at least 8gb, but it's damn hard to find an answer anywhere. Micro SD.

Not sure but I have over 200 songs and some of my songs are over 6 minutes!

It depends on the length or amt of computer space it takes up, is my understanding. I have downloaded about 100 songs so far, and according to the device I have used about 10% of my available space.
