Hi,  
if I got it correctly the internal storage is only 4GB.  
How can I use the entire storage of that SD card?

kind regards,

Andreas

Hi Boris,

thas worked. I was under the impression thats for the external USB drive… for testing I had a 4GB drive connected…so both appeared with the same size on the UI, should have used a different USB drive which would have prevented that I mixed these 2 up
