sjoerd Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Hey, (tried to find existing topic but did not succeed) The usbstick of my second unraid server is reporting damaged blocks. I tried to fix them but only made it worse. Two years ago I bought the samsung fit 32G (Thanks @SpaceInvaderOne for that awesome video on youtube) but it seems 32G or smaller is very hard to come by these days so - does the 32G limit for the bootflash still stands or would a 64G version work as well? Regards Sjoerd Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 As long as you can format it to FAT32 it should work. IIRC windows won't do FAT32 larger than 32G, but third party programs and non-brain dead OS's can as well. Use the manual install method, I'm not sure if the USB creator program can deal with it either. RUFUS is a good option for formatting. Quote Link to comment
