[QUOTE="Daniel McAllister, post: 138233, member: 2431"] Re: USB Hard drive for recording? What size is the drive? Later versions of Windows don't always offer FAT32 as an option in the usual format dialog box on drives over a certain capacity. To override this, you need to open a Command Prompt window, and type in the command 'format x: /FS:FAT32 /Q' where 'x' is the drive letter for the external drive. Obviously this will wipe any data currently stored on the drive, and you need to take care to ensure you've definitely typed in the correct drive letter! If it's a particularly large drive, and the above doesn't work, there's another step you'll need to take first. The X32 won't see anything that's formatted as exFAT (nor will much else that isn't Windows based). [/QUOTE]
