    i use a 16 gb blade cruzer stick in the back of my Uno for the epg and picons etc. i also use another 16gb stick specifically for making image backups. although for epg and picons a 2 gb would be more than sufficient.

    yes without any problems. i only separate mine as being a beta tester i need to keep regular backups, so it's easier to have a dedicated stick for backups only.
