Putting MP3 onto micro card - can I do this?

I usually like www.newegg.com for prices.  Most microSD cards come with a USB reader or an adapter so they can be read by an SD card reader.  “Class 2” is good enough for music & audiobooks.

The good news is you don’t really need a card reader.  Your Clip+ can work as a “card reader”. I’d recommend turning the Clip+ to “MSC mode” in System Settings > USB Mode.  Your Clip+ will show up in XP’s Windows Explorer as 2 separate drive letters (it will do this whether or not you have a card in, so you can look at it now).  The 1st drive letter is your internal memory, the 2nd letter is the MicroSD card drive.

Put your new card into your Clip+ , plug your Clip+ into your computer, and drag & drop your music directly onto the secondary memory card.  I “safely remove” my Clip+ before unplugging it, just to be safe.  A 16G card will probably cause a lengthy “refreshing your media” message!

Hope that helps.
