Hello, I'm new to this website and new to the Wii softmod game.
I recently added Homebrew to my Wii. My goal is to play backup Wii and GameCube games through my Seagate Backup Plus 4tb USB powered external hard drive.
I read a lot of research online on what to do. My understanding is, the easiest and best way is to just format the entire drive to FAT32 at 32k clusters. Then add the games, apps, Wii hacking, etc.
However, formatting software won't allow me to format a hdd of that size without asking me to split it into two 2tb partitions.
Fortunately, I've read that it can be done on a 4tb and people have uploaded pics as proof.
Two questions for now...
1. Can someone please show me how to get my 4tb usb powered add formatted to fat32 32k clusters
2. Is my hard drive even compatible to begin with? ... It is a "SEAGATE BACKUP PLUS" 4tb
Need to know this asap, so I can return it if it's not compatible. Hope. Someone can HELP. I've worked so hard so far. THANKS!!!
