Hi everyone, first post. I am a proud owner of the Archos 43 IT. So, I recently acquired the usb host cable from Deal Extreme.
Now, I only have two usb stick (8, and 16gb) neither of which work. My first intention was to put all of wikipedia on one flash drive (wikipedia is about 14.8 gb) so I could have everything on a portable screen. My second intention was to get an external hard drive (large capacity for movies on the HDTV), but there is a looot of misconception of what kind of drives work (NFTS, USB powered, etc) so I would love someone to spell out two things: What sixteen gigabyte usb drives are confirmed to work, and what sort of hard drive would the community recommend?
Thanks in advance.
Does the drive matter, or is it more the format of the drive? I have a bunch of USB drives that are all formatted either FAT32 or NTFS and they all seem to work.
I have not tried a external hard drive yet...
Well both of mine are fat32. I think its more an issue of powering the drives. From what I understand the Archos doesn't really give all that much juice to what's plugged in the host.

is your cable in working condition? you can try putting an external HDD and power the HDD with an external source to see if it works

Ah, yes it works just fine. I'v been using a USB keyboard with a trackball via the adapter, and I just plugged in my brother's external hard drive with a wall adapter (I don't have an external hd), and it worked great. So its just the flash drives, I just want to know if anyone has a 16gb drive they own that works via usb host.
Okay, here is a list of flash drives I've personally used that work without issue:
OCZ Diesel 4GB
Kingston Data Traveler 16GB
OCZ Rally2 8GB (Dual channel)
Corsair Flash Voyager 8GB
Sandisk Cruzer 1GB
Lexar 1GB
Here is a list of external hard drives/enclosures I've tested that work without issue:
Seagate FreeAgent Go
Metal Gear Box IDE Enclosure
Venus DS IDE Enclosure
Rosewill RS-358-S SATA I/II Enclosure
Here is a list of NAS drives I've tested that work without issue:
DataRobotics Drobo-FS
Buffalo Terrastation II
Hopefully this helps.

Hi, this does help. However, it leads to another question: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Kingston+Data+Traveler&x=15&y=22#/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=kingston+datatraveler+16&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Akingston+datatraveler+16
There seems to be a lot of variations on the data traveler 16gb. Would you mind telling me which one you personally have?

Holy buckets...had no idea there were so many versions. LOL.
Well, it says its a Data Traveler 2.0 under the hardware IDs. I don't think they even sell this model anymore. I bought it from Microcenter.com at the time.
Have you tried a micro sd card reader dongle with a 16GB micro sd card?
That's the solution I've been using and it has been working fine with my 43

Well according to your signature you have a 101 tablet, which has a full-size USB port that delivers more power to the device and has much wider drive compatibility. The smaller devices (43 and 70) provide less USB power and few devices work with them.
We need to get a list going of confirmed working peripherals with each device...

Everytime I see this I trip over the line that wikipedia is 14.8 gigs. I know this is totally off-topic, but wha!??! ("the compressed file enwiki-20100130-pages-meta-history.xml.bz2 is over 280.3 GB in size (in 7z format is over ~31 GB), and decompresses to several (>5) Terabytes of text.")
My mind, it is boggled.
Best gain from external memory
there are interesting posts, in the development thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=934087
seems that best performing cards on archos 101, after several tests, are
Transcent 8gb/6/0x4142
Lexar 16gb/6/0x4245
which approximate the internal card performance
I've been thinking abit during christmas and searching ebay after the ultimate product for theese new devices that has micro USB with OTG capabilities.
I wish for a small OTG cable with built in micro SD card reader. Now I use an OTG cable and a small reader which ofcourse gets a bit lumpy.
With todays micro SD card readers integrated into a USB shell it shoud be easy to make it as a msall unit that goeas straight into the micro usb port, eiterh as a mall dongle with all integrated or as a coonnector with up to 2 inches of cable.
Or has someone already made this and I ca't find it ?
Thats the set up I'm using. There is no 'integrated' version I can think of but I'm trying to strip mine down and integrate them into a case.

A case with integrated microSD a great idea. Would be perfect for a GN, especially my GSM version haha.
Maybe Radio shack has some small case for projects and we can put the innards in a small form factor.
okay this isn't exactly what your looking for, but it's my setup and it works perfectly.
i'm using this cable. there are cheaper ones available but i wanted one that had comments saying it worked. (the cheaper one also goes the other direction.)

with this setup i used a class 10 16GB patriot memory microsd and it worked perfectly and incredibly fast. also i played standard def WMV and AVI files with no issues, in addition to a 720p episode of transformers prime and a 1080p movie trailer with no lag at all.
i'm looking into buying a 32GB, but i'm sure it will work considering microSD cards to not require a lot of power.
I was hoping that the phone would read my 1TB hard drive, but unfortunately it doesn't, so this is now my backup.

Do you think your sdcard reader draws less energy from the phone than a USB stick?
It's not handy for me using my old big USB stick and your solution seems better.

i can pretty much guarantee you that the microsd reader and card use less power than a USB stick.
i've confirmed a 16GB card, and another user has confirmed a 32GB card.
But in my flash drive tests, NOTHING over 8GB would work. i tried 3 different brand 16Gb and 2 different brand 32Gb and none worked. Additionally no portable hard drives worked either.
pretty much confirms that the cards use a lot less power than the flash drives.

What about formatting? If I recall correctly, the phone won't read anything that is NTFS formatted, as its not in the kernel.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus LTE using xda premium
External hard drives require a startup power, that's why some of them have 2 USB connections. Even though they should only require one connection to work, depending on the computer you are connecting to, you may need to connect 2 USB ports to supply enough power for the hdd to spin up. After that it works fine.
I doubt the GN will ever supply the necessary power for an external HDD to work though. Best to stick to FAT32 flash drives and SD cards.
I have successfully connected a fat32 16Gb flash drive to my GN with a USB OTG adapter without any problems. Just make sure it's formatted as fat32 and not NTFS.
@esoomenona: i tried both fat32 and NTFS, on 16GB neither worked. my 32gb are all NTFS. did not know about the formatting kernel though. hope my kernel supports it since i plan on formatting my incoming 32gb microsd to ntfs.
@flakz0r: figured as much about the hard drives. my transformer can run it, so now it just needs to get ICS so it can play 720p videos without lag.
interesting that you got a fat32 16gb flash drive to work. guess the phone just doesn't like mine.
and since were on the subject of formatting, does anyone know any specific kernel that supports NTFS. i know stickmount just added support but it says you still need a kernel that supports it.

What's the largest capacity USB HDD not externally powered anyone has successfully used with his/her SG S3 using an OTG USB cable?
Please, please be specific in terms of the capacity, format (NTFS, Fat32, etc.), brand, model, and the OTG cable used (preferably include where you bought it from) any other info you can provide. There are just so many different threads pertaining to S3 and I really can't tell under which one this topic should fit. I did search most forums but no one has yet provided this specific info. Just quite a few people reporting successes and failures without much details.
Again, I know lots and lots of people have successfully connected hard drives as large as 1 or 2 TB but they were externally powered . I want to see how large we can go by just directly connecting a hard drive (again, no flash drives, etc.).
Thank you all!

You need PARAGON software installed to read NTFS and compressed volumes. My first try, even with paragon installed, said that the disk is blank, but i think when I restarted phone it started working.
For your information, I acquired a SanDisk 64GB Micro SD card. I put it on Windows, formatted it in NTFS, and put in my Galaxy S3. First it said that the volume whas blank, but some seconds paragon NTFS/HFS+ recognize it and let me browse the files.
The interest thing is that the phone's camera, and every function in the phone recognize the card with ntfs normally.

Another option, which I have done with my Xoom2 tab, and which should work with the Note 2...is to use a main-powered USB hub, then you can connect as many USB devices as you like, all at the same time.
At one point I had a camera, keyboard, mouse, usb stick and external drive all connected and all working...I have used an SD card reader as well =]
Just plug in the hub through the OTG, then everything else in to the hub...job done!

It does indeed...needs to be formatted in FAT32 I believe, I'm not sure if it will recognise NTFS.
I use Swissknife, it lets you format big drives e.g. 500GB in FAT32 =]
That should let you use it with the OTG cable.
It will recognise hard drives formatted to exfat, as long as they are independantly powered - no file size limitation.
It works with thumb drives, so I would assume also hdd: paragon ntfs. Free in the app store, requres root.

I just recently got a PQI Connect 203 off Ebay because I was finding it annoying to carry around a USB adapter with my Meenova. This thing is amazing. IT is very small, works perfectly with cases on my Moto G and is much cheaper than the Meenova. It also uses microSD cards, which is what I was looking for.

I might get one of those or SanDisk Ultra Dual USB Drive or Transcend JetFlash 380S. Are there any differences between them except perhaps the price and personal taste?

I'm using Sandisk Dual (16gb) drive right now, bought it because they use and manufacture their own flash chip. Plus the textured body and black and red color looks wicked. Tried using my friend's Transcend OTG drive which is larger by a small margin, and it's write speed is almost the same as the sandisk.
If you don't mind getting a bigger OTG drive, you might want to look at Corsair GO drive. It's usb 3.0 when plugged in a PC.

Performance is poor for long operations, when it gets hot, for reading and writing too. Everything else, fine...
