The part of the hard drive that it is reading is the section that is formated fat.
The whole drive needs to be format fat.
Or go to the market and download drive mount and it will let your device read ntfs formated hard drives.
So choice is format all in fat, and don't need drive mount to read drive or
install drive mount to read ntfs formated drives.

If you installed a taboonay v2.0, it has a built in drive mount, try to mount your drive via drive mount...
Hello all,
I am using g900i with xtrestolite 5.0 rooted rom. I want to connect my external hdd via usb otg. Problem is that i have 2 partitions, 1 is fat 32 of about 120gb and rest is ntfs. I have already tried stickmount and paragon to connect ntfs but was unsuccessful. The fat32 version wosrks natively.
Please help.
Is it possible to get 128GB flash drive working as internal storage in marshmallow? I formatted my pny 128GB flashdrive to fat32 using diskpart and when I try to format it in nexus player to use as internal storage, it quits after around 5 mins saying that it couldn't format the drive. I currently have a 16gb driver as internal storage and it's running out of space. Also I'm using a USB hub with a otg cable if that helps. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I am using an old 250gb sata HDD via a hub with eithernet and it works. Esfilemanager will sometimes crash it requiring a hard reboot to reactivate it but do far so good.
Did you format it in Android so that you can use it as internal storage? I can plug it in as removable storage but can't use it as internal storage.
Make sure you partition as FAT 32 and Master Boot Record instead of GUID Partition or Apple Partition Mac, just to make sure. And remember that FAT 32 won't handle files larger than 4GB, so keep that in mind. If you have the need to use larger than 4GB files you can format the drive to NTFS on Mac using the Tuxera driver or any other third party NTFS driver; Android does read NTFS partitions.

I formatted it as fat 32 and MBR using partitionwizard and still having the same issue. Does anybody have any other suggestions that can fix this?
I formatted my 128gb usb stick to a NTFS files system in a windows machine and then as "internal" in the Nexus Player.
I tried with a 16gb flash drive and 1tb USB hard drive and was able to use any as internal storage. As a matter of fact, the 1tb drive had 3 partitions and the Nexus wiped them for or good and used the entire tera as internal storage.
Hi,
Same problem for me with a 64GB kingston flash drive ... The nexus player fails to format the key as an internal storage. If I try to format as a general USB storage it works, and my key become a 64GB external storage in FAT32 (but useless for me, I have to store big files > 4GB ...). So i want to use it as an internal storage.
Any ideas why the internal storage format option goes into error ?

I have exactly the same problem.
Perhaps it depends on the flash drive model ? Does people getting it working can share their flash drive model ? (I don't want to buy 50 flash drive before I can expand the internal storage ... )
For me, this flash drive doesn't work : Kingston DataTraveler Micro 3.1
