At present the SBS on the Touch only scans one external device. So it
will read the USB drive *or* the SD card, but not both. Whichever is
connected first is treated as the device with the music library. If both
are attached when the Touch boots it chooses one -- I'm not sure which
it chooses, but I would expect it to default to the USB drive. To switch
them you would need to physically insert or remove one of the storage
devices.

On your question about the Touch serving the time to an SB2, I haven't
tested it, but I expect the SB2 would pick up the time from the Touch,
even when the Touch is in standby.
