About USB Drives
USB drives are storage devices that have a USB interface. Some examples of USB drives are:
USB Thumb drives (flash memory)

USB  Card  Reader  with  flash  memory  installed  (e.g.,  Compact  Flash,  SD/MMC,  Memory

Although you may connect other MP3 players through the USB port for playback, we recommend 
that you use the provided Auxiliary Line-In jack for such devices to take advantage of your MP3 play-
er’s display and controls (please see the AUXILIARY (AUX) MODE section for more information).
