Hi Nancy, An MP3 music file generally takes up about 4 megabytes of memory. If you do the math there, you'll see that you will fit perhaps one or two songs on your flash disk if you have the 16 mb motherboard without running into trouble. My 128 mb compactflash card claims that it can hold approximately two hours worth of music, so that should give you some sort of guestimation. As for loading files, you can load them into whichever folder you desire. Similarly, when you access the media player from the main menu, you can direct the BN to look in whichever folders you have stored mp3's in. When you activate a link for an mp3, or any other download, using keyweb, you will be prompted "download file into which folder?" From there, you can select any folder, or, if you wish the file to be on a different drive, hit backspace, make your drive selection, and select a folder, or create your own, on this drive. I'm sorry if I haven't addressed your questions adequately.
