Hi guys,

Is there a maximum USB flash drive size supported on these boxes? I've tried a couple of 128GB, exFat drives and they show as corrupted. They're fine on my PC/PS4 etc.

Tried a few smaller sized sticks on the box and they're fine :)
Thanks.

Might not be compatible with exFat formatted drives... depending on what GT1 device you using.

Have you tried formatting a small drive with exFat and testing?

Thanks! Yes, I have a 'go to' 32GB drive formatted to exFat and that's fine.

Do Beelink recommend a specific file system type for removable media?

How was they originally formatted to exFAT? There's some devices using different problematic parameters when formatting that aren't agreeable.

Thanks! I think I just used the 'default' Windows 10 format settings? Trying it again now, should I use a different allocation unit size maybe?
