USB Flash Drive

[knastabooh]

When i try and copy to the flash drive it will only copy about 13 GB worth of data. I tried copying MP3 and then PDF files. It is a 32GB flash drive so i know there is space. I tried using a different flash drive and it did the same thing. I tried formatting to fat32 and it did the same thing, so i tried formatting it to efat, and it did the same thing. Tried formatting to NTFS and the computer wont let me. I tried using a different USB port and it did the same thing (it was the ones on the front, havent tried the ones on the back of the computer)

it doesnt have a name on it. But i have 2 of the same drive and am having problems when using both. It also did the same thing to me when my samsung galaxy tab 3 was plugged into it. I was copying PDF files to the SD card of the tablet and it copied the folder but not the pdf files.

sound like you bought some cheap knockoff that is not working, return it get get some brand one.

that would explain the flash drives, but what about the tablet?

did you try just coping the files in the directory?
