Hello all,
I just get a Samsung M3 4TB USB 3.0 portable disk and attempt to use it with my Wii to play my backups GC and Wii.
Previously, I was using a WD My Passport Ultra 2TB USB 3.0 portable disk without any problem (1x FAT32 partition).
But now I am discovering the hard way what is GPT, the equivalent of MBR for disk bigger than 2TB, and the compatibility problems with the USB loaders...
Because I think only USB loader GX is able to handle GPT, I gave it a try (I stick on USB CFG loader for a while).
On my GPT disk, I created one 2TB FAT32 partition (how to create a bigger one?) --> USB loader GX was happy!
I then created a second partition 2TB NTFS --> USB loader GX wasn't happy anymore and even did not see the 1st FAT32 partition...
Is there a way to use fully the 4TB of my disk with USB loader GX? (or any other USB loader)
Thanx.
