10base2 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I've been reading that due to a revision change, the 4GB SanDisk memory media is no longer recommended - what are you using in its place (manufacture and size)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riddimr Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) PNY 16gb. It was laying around. No problems so far. Works with 2.8.1 and 3.0. Edited September 5, 2013 by riddimr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airman_dopey Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Depends on what you mean by "not recommended". If you're using the pineapple juice, then no it will not work properly. Problem is the pineapple juice does not provide enough power really to run the pineapple under full load with a peripheral anyway. If you bump up the power pack to something sufficient, then the sandisk works just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10base2 Posted September 5, 2013 Author Share Posted September 5, 2013 Thank you for clarification - so my recently purchased Anker will work with my SanDisk 4GB ver 1.6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exhausted Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I never bought a Sandisk from the hakshop so i went out and got my own usb stick from the local shop. 20 Euro in Tesco Ireland got me a 16gb Sandisk Blade. I followed the instructions and partitioned it accordingly to work with the pineapple. As for the remaining 12GB's on the drive i made a FAT partition out of it and im currently using Sandisk's Encryption Software on it. So all is working great. The USB stick works nice with the mkIV and lets me install what ever add ons i want and i still have 12gb's of an encrypted drive which is more then enough for storing sensitive material.

10base2 Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 I like your idea of adding fat/ntfs partition - BTW what are you using to power pineapple? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exhausted Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I like your idea of adding fat/ntfs partition - BTW what are you using to power pineapple? Im using an Anker 13,000 mAh. It has a 1amp and a 2amp output (2 usb ports) I run the 1amp for the pineapple and the 2amp to power the usb hub, usb stick, alfa card and what ever else i need (like an android phone) Although i need another battery, my phone has an extended battery (8000mAh) and requires 2amps to charge so with the usb drive plugged into the hub it sometimes doesnt recognize im connected and android tethering fails. A standard galaxy s3 would work perfect though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
