Noob advice - hot-swapping cards on Clip Zip

(1/2) > >>

Hello

I bought a Clip Zip last month which I Rockboxed and have since managed to fill it and my 32GB card to the brim. The joy of lossless!

My question is do you think it's better to just keep collecting and filling 32GB cards with music to hot-swap, or to buy another Clip Zip or Clip+ so I don't have to keep rebuilding my database every time I put in a different memory card?

For some reason the auto-update feature is a little hit and miss so I was thinking it might be better to get another DAP to rockbox rather than just adding extra cards, but I'm interested in your feedback and experience on this topic.

Cheers

If you're going to be hot swapping cards, I would use the file browser. 

harrawk:
Thanks for the advice. Do like using the database but will give the file browser a go and see how it goes. Think I'll also get another 32GB card next month and if hot-swapping is too much hassle then I'll get a Clip+

harrawk:
Wow, just seen an 8GB Clip Zip on Play.com for £34.99 with a free 4GB card on the side (that'll go in the wife's camera).

No need for hot-swapping now, just have to juggle players instead.  ;D

Heh, if you don't care about the colour then you could even save £2 by opting for the white model :)
