![]() ![]() This is about half the typical performance of a USB 2.0 portable drive. In my testing, as a flash drive connected to a computer, it registered the copy speed at just 12MBps for writing. The second shortcoming of the iXpand is the fact that it doesn't support USB 3.0. SanDisk says it's contemplating the issue and, depending on user demand, might consider making the iXpand Sync app support exFAT in the future. Since most feature-length HD movies require more than 4GB to store in a digital format, there are many movies you can't bring with you using the iXpand. However, it can hold single files of just 4GB or less. In order for it to work with the iXpand Sync app, you'll need to format it using FAT32.įAT32 is a common file system for thumbdrives and is fully supported by both Windows and Mac. You can format the drive into any of these file systems, but then it works only as a regular thumbdrive. ![]() As much as I like the iXpand the way it is, I wish it supported other file systems, such as NTFS, NFS+ or exFAT.
