    Manual here.

    According to that, FAT/FAT32, the specs of which would be here.

    That USB port is only USB2.0. Not great if you're looking to pass large amounts of data. Might be better off with a small NAS connected, though it looks like the ports are only 10/100 anyway.

    Thanks roast
    I did figure that out by now (tried both), even after 3Care texted me link <screenshots.portforward.com/routers/Huawei/B593/Server_Settings.htm> which states that NTFS is supported as well.
    I am trying to get use of Home Gateway Media Server(DLNA) which is one of the features supported, and speed ~5MBps is just about enough

    Regards size - have 2 TB drive formatted FAT32 and it show up, but there is another mystery: on PC on mapped net. drive i can see all files and folders but on TV half of the folders/files won't show up. I know about file size, directory depth and name length limits but compare two files(.mp4) some appear and other won't. Did i miss something?
    By the way network drive in Windows (8.1 and 7) appear as NTFS ???? even do it is formatted FAT32 ?
    Any ideas?
