Hi all,
I'm getting increasingly infuriated trying to get my W204 (C63) to read from a USB HD.
- USB sticks work fine when formatted with FAT32 (not with NTFS, understandably)
- I then formatted my USB HD (Samsung S2 Portable 500GB) with FAT32 using FAT32format - no joy
- I then tried using a 4k block size instead of 32k - no joy
- I then tried formatting the S2 Portable using Samsung's own format utility - still no joy
All this despite the fact that the Samsung S2 Portable 500GB is on the Mercedes Benz list of approved devices - Mercedes-Benz Bluetooth Connectivity
Any hints/tips? As I say, this is beginning to really frustrate me!
