USB File Sharing-Drive size?
RW-obi:
I know someone will say this is posted, but I've searched and searched and can't find the answer. I'm trying to find out what size flash drive the USB port can support for file sharing. Some systems have a limit at 32 Gb. What about the Obi200? Does anyone know what size drives and what file systems are supported for USB file sharing? Obihai doesn't seem to want to reveal that info.
I have to say, my Obi devices have worked well, but Obihai customer support is the worst. Even with the forums it is really hard to get any answers about these things.

Let me try to understand where in the official promotions by Obihai that it gave you the impression that you can use a flash drive in their device for file sharing? (Minus the fact that there is a USB port)
If there are no official documents from Obihai promoting the use of a flash drive, do you think that just because a device has a USB port, it should allow for file sharing through a flash drive?

I stand corrected. Thank you.

I should add, I have successfully used the USB file sharing feature on my Obi200, using an old 2 Gb flash drive, and it works. File access is through a browser or by FTP. I wish I access it as a network share in Windoze, but the firmware doesn't support that.
Now I want to buy a larger flash drive to use with it, since they're getting cheaper. I thought maybe someone would know if an Obi20x can work with flash drives larger than 32 Gb, which is a limit for some devices. Thanks for replies. :) Thanks to *drgeoff* for providing the link to the brief section on file sharing in the admin guide.
