I used this method to up my storage, on a video you shared before. It works a treat. Very simple. I now have more storage than I could possibly ever need thanks to this method. Thank you.

Tanya your videos are the best by far.. your so thorough and explain everything so well, Thank you for this presentation it's the best 💕👌

Funnily enough was watching a similar video of yours earlier, as tried to connect a ntfs usb to the 4k max 🙈. Thanks for the upload tanya.

Thank You Tanya. I tried several YouTube instruction videos. Yours was the only one that worked. I haven’t experienced any slow down using the thumb drive except when installing it does take a little longer to install a program. Could not install the Roku channel or Pluto app on the thumb drive, it went directly to the Firestick. Is this normal? Anyways, thank you very much for the assistance and I will be watching more of your videos. Pete.

Hiya Tanya. Brilliant tutorial as usual. Now that adb has been disabled is there still a way to add USB devices as system storage? Thanks.

Does the cube have a max for external drives?

[gdubb]

Hi Tanya- two questions: 1) can I “reformat” a drive that was formatted differently before? 2) can I use aomei on an Apple iMac?

Hey 3 questions one can a 3.1 flash drive work on a firestick and two can a Samsung flash drive work for a firesick and three do faster flash helps with buffering and God Blessed

Hi Tanya, I'm always so grateful for your videos. Can I do the same steps for an onn streaming box?

[gordongartrelle]

Your videos and website are extremely helpful.

[comedydude]

Thanks for another very informative video. You make the best ones.
What happens when the storage is greater than 2Tb? does it need to be partitioned?

[An.Individual]

Would much rather have exFAT or even NTFS.
The 4GB file limit on FAT32 can be a problem with some 4K videos.

Hi Tanya thanks for this video perfectly explained massive 👍 up😊

[javierbarrera]

i did, i tryed 32gb and 64gb pen drive, but when i inserte on firestick said the same problem: that i need to format the usb, and i lost all the file i cpoied from pc to firestik. what can i do???

[coopz]

Great video for people that need to do this but you only need a few apps on a stick to watch everything so the storage on them is big enough for most people 😊

I bought a new Firestick 4k and new usb flash drive and it won't recognize it. Will this help? I tried everything. Seems as Amazon did this on purpose. Like having restrictions accessing external usb drives

[Rayraywheelz]

Great tutorial. Do you have any tips if I only have a chromebook laptop? I don't think the Chromebook supports. .exe files

[DadaDevipujak]

When I format the pen drive in this way, I am not able to copy my big files in it. (File more then 4gb) please me your opinion share me???
