I am wanting to use a usb memory stick for a portable player. The drive is 2tb but whatever format type I use when I plug it into Volumio it only shows 12Gb. I am using a PiZero2, is there a size limit, I don’t need all 2tb it was just one I had.
Hopefully someone can help
Was it a Cheap 2TB usb drive from wish / Amazon or aliexpress?
than it could be a fake drive.
Best Regards,
Dvo
i have also that fake drive 2Tb - but it is only 20 Gb
its 2Tb in windows
Is it a brand usb stick or generic ?
And what was the price of it?
the memory stick is fine, I’ve used another know, branded memory stick and I have the same problem, it doesn’t provide the full capacity available, ITS NOT THE MEMORY STICK
How the stick is formatted?
Ive tried fat32, ntfs, Ext3 Ext4 all the same
I wouldnt know how to do it via volumio to be honnest so using a third party partition manager in windows
I use https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-SDCZ880-256G-G46-Extreme-256GB-Solid/dp/B01N7QDO7M and never had this problem.
