Who thanks we need more storage now! - Ouya General

I had to delete sonic 2 just to update it. We need to be able to save to flash sticks. If they don't fix these soon they will start losing money.

You can mount NTFS drives out of the box.
And you can use an app to move data files off to the HDD to save space.

Yes, but just to explain what is meant by mount in this case is that the OUYA reads it in it's internal file structure. Without doing more, you can only transfer files or read FROM an NTFS hard drive. You cannot WRITE to an NTSF drive currently, nor can you use it for extra APP storage, without doing more with different apps and stuff, I'm not really sure of the process.
I am currently using a 1TB Western Digital HDD full of PS1/Genesis/SNES ROM's.

We need to be able to write and read to the USB stick. Using the ouya os.

You can use link2sd but you need to create a second partition ext4 for that.

I'm not sure i heard it was just for apps however you us connect using PC mode it opens a drive to that 8 gb internal memory. It has some drivers and PC applications that you can install from it. I didn't try writing anything to it at the time and I'm not sure you can. Give it a try and let me know.

Why WOULDN'T you want it is the question...
I like the idea all app data in one place and my data in another. Especially since the card can't pop out by accident. Why fill internal mem with media and then complain about no room for apps, imo of course.

No its on the 2gb card. Transfer that if ya want. I used phone to move it to internal, then put in my 8gb and moved it there from internal using astro file manager. ..

EXFat is now supported on the SGS3!!! Tip for fast sdcard inside!

So I just seen that the SGS3 supports EXFat and files over 4gb's now. So if you want a really fast SD card, consider formatting from Fat32 over to exfat, and set block size to 16mb or 32mb. I know most if not all my files are 5mb or way over that, so not much space is wasted! I hope that helps someone

Can you format ex fat in the phone itself or has to be pc? I purchased a 64gb sdxc card and will need to do this.

Why on earth would you want a 32 MB block size? Seems like you would end up with a ton of wasted space.

Well for me I have a lot of movies, huge pictures, music over 7mb. I myself use 16mb. But for people that want full speed from exfat will select 32mb.

Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
So would that mean that any files I have under 16mb will in fact take up 16mb of space? Even files that are only a few kb?
Yes. I know it sounds scary, but most small items are stored on the phone sdcard.

I didn't read the whole thread. But from what I saw, only 3 people had a problem. And at first he said he copied 1900 files and had corruption, then he states its a problem over 3000. I don't know if this is user error, or what. But thanks for the warning, Ill keep an eye out....... And if that guy was checking file by file for 1900 songs, that's some serious time, I call BS.

I unloaded my 64gb sd card, put it in the phone and it formatted it to exfat, I copied all my data back to the card and did a restore from mybackup pro, after the restore and reboot I then received a damaged sd card, i'm not sure what's going on, The only 2 options on windows is NTFS and exFat
Performance gain will be nominal. You're talking a phone here, not a database server dealing with heavy iOPS. I have a 64GB Class 10 in mine and performance could not be better. I also had a ***** of a time getting the card to register after I let my PC format it, had to, absolutely had to, let the device format it.
Note: I'm a heavy performance user who goes for maximum battery without overly sacrificing performance. Professionally, I build and configure SAN's for Exchange, SQL and vSphere. I make no claims to being a phone development god (thought about refreshing my skills there but frankly, don't have the time), BUT I'm also VERY good at what I do.

Had the same problem. I had no option but to let the phone format it. Delete the partition in windows and then you can format it. If you find another way though, let me know!
Sorry misread your post, I had the same error and had to let it reformat. Did you unplug it and put it into your PC? Were any corrective scans or anything done?
I removed everything back off the card, formatted it to fat32 and copied everything back to it, put it back in the phone and it's still saying it's damaged. Sucks, it's been in my EVO3D for a week now with no problems.
is the extra juice really worth the possibility of data corruption? Im not trying to be a wise guy, just really been wondering myself.

Well I must say now I'm worried. But I'm still going to test, I copy huge files to and from on a regular basis, if it saves me 3% in time each time, that is still worth it to me in the long run. I have very little patience, and all that time adds up.

seems to be working now, I had 8,000 temp files in a MyBackup Pro Directory, Deleted them and now it's working
So if I were to format my 64gb card to exfat and download movies to my phone using adownloader or atorrent, I wouldn't be able to transfer them to my ps3?

Unmount OTG USB storage

Hi!
Is there an app or short cut for this? I mean to do in a proper way through settings. You know settings/storage/unmount.
My device is rooted and the USB mounts automatically, so it pops up in MXplayer, EZ file explorer etc.

Hi,
When using my 4 GB to copy files from/to my Nexus I'm getting more or less 10-15MB/s, sometimes a bit more. The file size limitations comes with the partitioning, FAT limits it to 4GB file.

Hi,
Oh, sorry but I can't tell you it... As I don't have a 256GB stick. Maybe you can check if a friend has and then testing it . Although, I don't belive there'll be major issues, as long as you keep the FAT32 formatting.

I use an 250Gb usb ssd formated in exFat. It work quite well, it just unmounts itself sometimes.
ExFat permits to have files greater than 4Gb but it's not supported by all ROM. CM11 support it. You can also format your stick in NTFS.
Sticks that big are still pretty costly but worth it for backing up a tablet?
Thanks for the info.

ext4 should work fine for the file system. If you have busybox installed you should also have mkfs.ext2, vfat, minix and mkdosfs --- if you want to put different filesystems on it from the tablet.
