[@reginaldmarselus4742]

I am relieved to find your video in my search for good tutorials on FireSticks. Well done.

[@stevemauri5598]

Great tutorial. Such a breath of fresh air listening to instruction that are so well spoken. I have a very similar setup. Doing my own research I have found that a lot of 'USB to ethernet' adaptors that you connect to a USB 2 port will work on a 10/100 base speed. These Evergreen ethernet adaptors will connect at 1gb but transmit at 480 Mbps. This has given me a great deal of streaming stability, which I didn't get when connecting via the inbuild wifi on the firestick.

[@surfer103]

I am new to fire stick and your video was very helpful. Got a low memory message and did not know what to do until I saw your video. Again thanks.

[@dazas8501]

Great video as always. I've been using my 4k Firestick with 4TB FAT32 formatted USB HDD attached for a few months. I use it as a media server by running Kodi configured as a DLNA server. This allows access to all the media on the server using any device on the WiFi with a DLNA client eg VLC, Castify, Kodi etc. Works great, runs 24/7 with minimal power especially if the HDD is configured to sleep when not in use.

I think my Firestick got pushed to the MAX upon watching this video!!🥵😆

[@Polyhive]

I am trying to create a setup that will work in the motor home on 12v. We don't have 240. I bought the three way OTG cable. And a three gang USB unit. The extra space on the USB stick and the dongle for the Wechip will only work on the USB socket on the OTG cable and not in the USB unit. I am thinking it's lack of power? So if this is the issue we would probably be better off with the Storage than the wechip. any thoughts Tanya please?

[@FireTVSticks]

Yes, it is probably a power issue.

[@sebastian19745]

I bought the OTG and Ethernet adapter/hub with the firestick. It works very well, with two downsides: first, the USB 2.0 the firestick have is a major bottleneck especially when streaming and, some USB storage devices are not well handled or recognized by the firestick. I have tested some external storage (WD, Toshiba and Samsund HDD) or Toshiba, Sandisk, Kingston USB flashdrives (from 8 to 32G) and only WD was recognized properly and Toshiba. Strange thing is that worked flawlessly no-brand storage devices like generic USB sticks(4 to 16G), generic SATA HDD enclosures (most with J-Micron chip).

[@FireTVSticks]

In my experience, Sandisk works the best for me. Interesting. Thank you for watching 😊👍❤️

[@sebastian19745]

@@FireTVSticks It might not make any difference, but my Firestick is the HD one, not the 4k version. I use Total commander and the USB hub is powered by a 5V/5A power brick. Maybe there were some difference or my Sandisk was a clone. I bought a 10-pack 8G USB sticks from Amazon for cheap and they worked perfectly.

[@theeastyorkies666]

Hi Tanya...many thanks for this very informative video, great work as always but may I ask you a little more about the '5Volt Power Supply' which you mention. I also happen to have the same UGreen 3 Port 1000Mbps Hub as you & including an OTG Cable. Please could you clarify if I connect the original Firestick DC Power Supply to the UGreen Hub making this the 5Volt Power Supply which you mention, OR do I need to connect x2 Power Supplys in total (ie: the 1st to the UGreen Hub & a 2nd original Firestick Power Supply to the Firestick ?). For the record Tanya: I'm running a Firestick 4K Max & I'm hoping to add a 2.5" Inch 5400rpm or 7200rpm Sata Hard Drive with upto a Terrabyte of storage. I understand that any external Hard Drive must be formatted in FAT32 format ?? My purpose of all of this exercise is to increase my Storage capabilities so that I can add additional Apps to the External SATA Hard Drive. Any info is greatly appreciated. Thankyou in advance Tanya, keep up the great work. 10/10⭐😊

[@FireTVSticks]

Yes, you "may" need additional power to the UGREEN hub if you are having issues with not enough power with the original Firestick power supply alone. If there are no lights to the UGREEN hub, you may need the 2nd power supply as recommended here: 5V 2A Power Supply Adapter Amazon US - amzn.to/3w4iZNx Amazon UK - amzn.to/33on2b9 Yes, your storage must be formatted to FAT32 to be recognised by the Firestick. To add storage so you can add additional apps, here's my tutorial to do this on the 4K Max - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rprPhparfdWeabs Hope this helps!

[@Cover2Lew]

Great stuff Tanya as usual. Curious how these processes differ (if they do) on the FireTV Cube?

[@FireTVSticks]

Process is similar on the Cube but you do need an additional power supply for the OTG adapter. Thank you for watching 😊👍❤️

[@Ravn73.]

What about External HDDs that got its own power supply? Because i wanted to do this along time ago, but different sites said it only works with normal External HDDs without it own power supply.

[@FireTVSticks]

Shouldn't be an issue, just plug the power into your HDD as well. What storage you use is down to you, but there are few things you need to consider when choosing your USB storage. I personally use and recommend the SanDisk 32GB Flash Drive Amazon US - amzn.to/3aYwuGe Amazon UK - amzn.to/3vQy05t As Fire TV devices are formatted to FAT32, the maximum size of USB storage that you can use is 2TB, however, Amazon officially recommends using USB drives that are 128GB or smaller. Amazon also recommends that high speed USB 3.0 drives are used, even though Fire TV Devices have a 2.0 USB port because USB 3.0 drives tend to have faster read/write speeds and will perform better, even when connected to USB 2.0 ports. You also need to be aware that with this process, your Fire TV device is likely to run slower when launching apps and moving around the menus as files on your USB storage cannot be read as fast as they can be read directly on the internal device storage. I hope this helps.

Hi Tanya, have you tried this insane deployment using a Firestick 4K (not Max)? I have mirrored all of your proposal less the Bluetooth gamepad. I have ordered the UGREEN hub as listed below your video WITH the AC adapter. I also ordered the mini USB Sandisk sticks 32GB as referenced as well. When I am also using the OTG recommended cable. When I connect the USB hub to the OTG with its power source, I don't see my storage or any of the usb devices like the mouse pad. When I remove and put the 32GB memory stick directly into the USB port of the OTG port, my Forestick constently reboot. Do you have a few hints for me? I would really like to deploy that setup. BTW I have also updated my OS to the latest release as well; I have played with the HDMI ports; I have unplugged everything, including the TV to no avail as I am always getting this behaviour. I also have more than one of each of the devices as I was planning in deploying this more than one TV, so I have also swapped each device to see if it would be the source of the issue and I remain unable to do anything and get a constantly rebooting stick when I connect directly to the OTG. Thank you in advance for any suggestion you may have.

[@FireTVSticks]

If the USB symbol is there, the app is installed to the external storage. The memory numbers might not be changing because of the size of the apps you are installing. If they are only a few MB in size, you may not see any drop in storage until you reach a GB in used space. The internal memory will continue to decrease as app data and cache are still stored on the internal storage.

Nice....👌

Will the setup you showed with 2 usb storage devices work with firestick4k. I have a 512gb set for internal storage and a 2 tb external storage device that worked for 3 days now the internal storage 512 tb microSD is only adding 1 % to the fire stick and does not show up in any file manament have xplorer and esfile mgr and now the system shuts down intermittently both usb devices are sandisk

[@FireTVSticks]

Yes it will. Depending on how you added your storage will affect how you can see your storage in a file explorer. As I do not know what you have done with your storage, here are all the possible answers: If you only attached storage and didn't do anything else to it (like allocate or partition to system storage) then this is a great way to explore your storage - kzbin.info/www/bejne/sH6YY5xji82dhrc If you used ADB to partition your storage as PRIVATE, you are no longer able to view the contents. It is inaccessible by any file explorer application. You will need to use the df -h command to see your storage space. Here is a video showing you how - kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHqZeJ1mr9yXh9k If you used ADB to partition your storage as MIXED, you will ONLY be able to see the partition of your storage that is not allocated to system storage by using a file explorer app. This is a great way to explore that part of your storage - kzbin.info/www/bejne/sH6YY5xji82dhrc If you have Fire OS 7 and storage was added via the Fire TV settings, you will not be able to explore that storage device. Hope this gives you the info you need? Thank you for watching 😊👍❤️

I knew most of this but great vid

[@amolcreta913]

It does not work for my fire stick 4K max which I purchased this month … Is there any change happened on latest version which has stopped supporting these external otg adaptor ? Pls pls pls clarify my query … I purchased this OTG cable and purchased a gamepad but the gamepad is not able to connect .. When I attach normal pen drive in that otg cable ..it does not get connected either .. Not sure if the cable itself is a problem or not. When I plugged the Bluetooth dongle of gamepad ..it does show led light in the dongle so power is available but connectivity is not happening … My mind is going crazy

[@FireTVSticks]

I do not have the new Firestick yet, I cannot look at any issues until I get it next week.

[@amolcreta913]

@@FireTVSticks ok thanks ..pls pls if possible do check and suggest me on the same pls ..will wait till your confirmation

[@zut-72]

the gamepad can be paired directly via bt to the firestick, you do not need a dongle for that

[@CraigTinson2015]
