Its 160 but I bought it from Skywonder as its supposed to be for this box. My brother has the same box & is using a 16 gb stick cost £17 with no probs,wish I had done same.Will not be using Skywonder in future.

You can pick up external usb 80 gb HDD from flea bay for about 25 to 30 quid. Usb memory sticks just dont cut it.

Thanks for your reply Astro but after spending £50 on this one I will keep trying to find a solution to the problem.I will say that there has not been a great after sales service rom skywonder & I am very dissapointed as they came recommended to me.Cheers anyway mate
