Concerns about SanDisk Cruzer Glide 128GB (note my n key is broken)

Hello.

It maybe depends how is your USB Drive/Stick formatted and USB speed on your PC (2.0/3.0 or higher).
Did you try it on your Wii too ?

 

Ok then there is nothing to worry.
It writes with max.20 MB/s.For me i see a difference if the USB Device is formatted NTSF/FAT32 or WBFS.And which Brand the USB Stick/Drive it is.

General recommendation is NOT USE USB Drives/Sticks/PEN Drives on your Wii.
Personally i don´t have issues with them.

 

You can use this excellent Guide please:

Good luck.

RiiConnect24 allows you to use the News or Forecast Channel, exchange mail between Wiis and PC, vote on polls, and use other WiiConnect24 features. It replaces the built-in WiiConnect24 system.

As it stands, RiiConnect24 does not support the Wii U yet, so please do not install it on a Wii U yet.
So far only the News, Forecast, and Everybody Votes Channels work, but check the stats page for further developments.

In order to install RiiConnect24 you must be on Wii Menu version 4.3, otherwise mail will not work.

What you need

• An SD card
• A Wii with an Internet connection
• A computer (any OS)
  
  
• RiiConnect24 Patcher

Instructions
Section I - Patching IOS
Do you have any problems with installing RiiConnect24 or do you want to ask us something? E-mail us at: [email protected]!

If you want to see detailed instructions on how to install patched IOS and the patched Everybody Votes Channel after you download it, click here!

You will now patch your IOS, IOS31 and IOS80. This is required to use the Channels we support to change an RSA key used to sign the files, and contains some patches for Wii Mail. You also will download a patched version of the Everybody Votes Channel.

1. Download the required files based on your OS. On Windows run RiiConnect24Patcher.bat, on Linux and MacOS run patch.sh.
2. Follow the instructions it gives you. Upon it finishing [on macOS and Linux, skip for Windows], copy the WAD folder to your SD Card.
3. You should get the Everybody Votes Channel and Nintendo Channel. It needs to be installed even if you already have the Everybody Votes Channel/Nintendo Channel on your Wii, because you will need a patched WAD you reinstall with.
4. (If RiiConnect24 Patcher copied everything to the SD Card, you can skip this step) Extract Wii Mod Lite, and then copy it to the apps folder on your SD Card. Do the same for Mail-Patcher.
5. Put your SD Card in your Wii.
6. Launch the Homebrew Channel on your Wii.
7. Launch Wii Mod Lite.
8. Using the +Control Pad on your Wii Remote, navigate to WAD Manager, and then navigate to the WAD folder.
9. When IOS31.wad is highlighted, press +, then do the same for IOS80.wad, Everybody Votes Channel and the Nintnedo Channel WAD.
10. If you get an error saying a title with a higher version is already installed (error -1035), go back to the WAD selection menu and press - on the highlighted Everybody Votes Channel/Nintendo Channel WAD, then try installing it again.
11. After they are successfully installed, press the HOME Button to exit back to the Homebrew Channel.

Section II - Patching nwc24msg.cfg
You will now patch your nwc24msg.cfg file which is required in order to use Wii Mail.

1. Launch RiiConnect24 Mail Patcher.
2. It should only take a few seconds to patch your nwc24msg.cfg. When it’s done, press HOME to exit.

If the previous step failed with an ``net_get_status: -24 - Couldn’t request the data: -24` error, please check the internet connection on your Wii.

If you were unable to patch your nwc24msg.cfg correctly, e-mail us at [email protected].
