March 4, 20242 yr 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
March 4, 20242 yr 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.
March 4, 20242 yr Author oke - then i'll test in with an older stick - got some 64G's laying around -
