[QUOTE="zumtotal, post: 840161, member: 397738"] I have an M3 (same chip and firmware as the F3). Recording to a USB flash drive is proving temperamental, to say the least! It doesn't just depend on speed, either - I tried a 16GB USB 3.0 Busbi Bolt which has a decent write up in this review of USB sticks: [URL="http://www.whoratesit.com/Best-Flash-Drive/Comparison/1"]USB 3.0 Flash Drives: 30 Best Speed Tests & Reviews @WhoRatesIt?[/URL] It's not particularly fast for USB 3.0, but much faster than USB 2.0. Anyway, it locked up on an overnight (50 minute) recording - didn't go into standby at end of timer and no recording on stick. It also has a very annoying, bright blue LED which lights up a dark room! Also had no luck with a 4GB generic USB 2.0 stick - no surprise there. Currently trying a Color Turn E902, 32GB USB 2.0 from Amazon - will report back. Generally I've had more luck formatting with NTFS compared with FAT32. [/QUOTE]
