Why obviously they are talking about a flux capacitor from a 1982 Delorean.....
Sad part is, I followed most of that
Ssd=solid state drive
M.2.80 = form factor (think tiny, half credit card)
Ntfs = Microsoft’s nt file system
Fat32 = really old file system

Is this the enclosure (and which m.2 stick did you use?) that you used for your m.2 stick? Also, did you go USBc? Inquiring minds want to know! haha!

Well now I'm stoked! I'll have to get a 1 TB stick to fit my entire music collection, so I'm wondering now if there is a size limit the usb c will read? For example, I have 490 GB of music files (future proof with 1 TB), will it recognize and let me browse the entire collection or only a small portion. Also wondering if it will read a "playlist" file?

Cherry, strawberry, and chocolate?

That’s what I’m waiting for the official response for, I was able to format the drive ntfs and browse music, but it didn’t have my “full” collection. We need to know filename size limits, number of folders, number of folders deep etc...

Than you very much for the tip on formatting my samsung mini fit 128gb usb drive. When I first tried to use it in my truck it would not read anything. The flash drive was formatted the old style. So I reformatted it to NTFS and tried it again and now it works perfectly! I searched the internet with other uconnect systems and a lot of people have the same problem. I think if they reformat their drives like you did it would fix a lot of issues! Thanks again!

Did anyone ever find out what the theoretical maximum # of folders and how many folders deep our uConnect 12" units can read on a single USB drive or external USB drive? I've got the same issue, around 12K files on a FAT32 formatted USB drive (which my 8.4" NAV Alpine system read just fine), but my uConnect 12" HK system won't read them all.
I have 8500 songs on a 32gb usb and it works just fine

Nerd alert!
I've got a spare 128GB M.2 SSD in an enclosure and I'll have to try and copy some music files over from my NAS to play with in the truck.
My guess is that the total file path is character limited by the OS that the infotainment system is running.
