Here the results of my speed test concerning the USB-Stick and (build-in) Flash disk.
To use the USB-Stick as startup disk on the Z4/Z8, you need to disconnect the harddisk-connectors (both flatcable and power) and better even remove the harddisk, because it’s noisy, slow, old & unreliable. Put in a USB-Stick clean FAT32 formatted, with programs and samples in an autoload folder. That’s it, put the power on and it will load automatically, a bit slower as Flash but it's a very cheap solution. I use the synthy banks 1 & 2 in total 66MB. Here the outcome of the test : Flash >>> Start Load - 13 sec >>> End Time - 1:22 sec USB >>> Start Load - 54 sec >>> End Time - 2:47 sec Conclusion : USB is much slower than Flash and it will take some time to find the USB-Stick. In fact 41 sec more than the Flash and the loading time is round a minute (for a 66MB) slower as Flash. For more ideas, questions and suggestions mail me. Bye… MNX2010 (dec2015)
