Great info as always cc. I currently have a usb flash drive hooked up to my 4k. I have a 1tb external that I'm thinking about hooking up. Crazy how quickly a 5gb firestick can get filled up. I know you always say to keep at least 1 gig free on a firestick.

I bought the 2 TB Seagate drive that you recommend and the external powersupply. I plugged it into my 4K Max stick had to do the format twice. The drive shows up on the stick but I can’t move files to it. I tried Plex like you showed and nothing. Do I need to pre-format this drive before I plug it into the stick? What should I do now?
@CuriosityCafe
@CuriosityCafe 6 месяцев назад
You have to install the apps after the drive is installed and formatted. If the app does now allow movement, you have to uninstall and reinstall using aptoide instead of amazon App Store. We cover this on Patreon

My 4K Max stick is basically full, (less than 1G avail.), which necessitated this adding of storage that you have helped me to set up. The stick is still sending me low storage messages and stops viewing though, even after I am completely hooked up. In "Manage Apps" do I have to click on offload to free space on the stick so it works? Should I do this with several apps? The 2 TB external is still showing as empty. Will the app then be gone from the home screen? Thanks again for your assistance!
@CuriosityCafe
@CuriosityCafe 6 месяцев назад
If you set it up as internal storage it will be on the home screen. I show you how to set it up in this very video. Also to clear low storage message you have to restart the stick.
@jboph22
@jboph22 6 месяцев назад
I followed your instructions and formatted it as device storage. Do I still have to offload apps since these were already on the full stick? Thanks again!@@CuriosityCafe
@CuriosityCafe
@CuriosityCafe 6 месяцев назад
Yeah, you can move them with es file manager, but it's easier just to uninstall and reinstall. Also not all apps from amazon app store will go to external. You have to use Aptoide app store to install those. We have all the instructions on patreon because youtube for some reason does not like the video and rejected it (it's a google app store).
@jboph22
@jboph22 6 месяцев назад
OK so if I uninstall some apps and reinstall them later then there should be no issues because the external drive will be used automatically? Thank you again, and if so, then hopefully this will be the last time I bug you on this!;-)@@CuriosityCafe
@CuriosityCafe
@CuriosityCafe 6 месяцев назад
Yes, and like I said if it doesn’t, then it’s an app you have to reinstall with aptoide

I have one of the original fire sticks which doesn’t seem to be working the best, so I was thinking about upgrading to the 4K. However, I believe somebody said that I would have to download all of my apps as if I was starting from scratch again. Is that true? I am an older person, and this seems daunting, thank you
@CuriosityCafe
@CuriosityCafe 6 месяцев назад
No, you don’t. I upgrade every year and don’t have to reinstall everything. It’s prompts you when setting up to do it automatically

No reason to get a slower firestick with an outdated OS (fire 6 vs fire 8) and not have the extra storage and features of the new max. Get this one: amzn.to/3SmfVtT it’s on sale too. You will thank me. New apps are all being developed for fire os 8

No, we talk about that in this video. We have a different video on the process for a cube. The 4k max is superior for expansion. That’s what the “max” stands for.

The app for my new Tablo 4th Gen DVR loaded automatically to my external drive, but was very slow and unstable until I moved the app to the fire stick. Will aptoid solve this? Also, do you have recommendations about disabling the new fire stick offload option?
@CuriosityCafe
@CuriosityCafe 6 месяцев назад
Speed has to do with the drive and cords you are using.
@CuriosityCafe
@CuriosityCafe 6 месяцев назад
Firestick will only offload if it’s an app you don’t use for a long period. Seems like a good deal to me. It doesn’t delete any log ins or data, just the app which is in the cloud and can be added anytime

My Fire TV is asking if I want to "Format (my external hard drive) to Internal Storage." I'm confused.
@CuriosityCafe
@CuriosityCafe 4 месяца назад
Yes it will if you have a 4k max. We have videos walking you through every step. You want to say YES to internal or you won't be able to access the apps on the external drive.
@silverfang6668
@silverfang6668 22 дня назад
Followed instructions precisely but all downloads still go to the internal storage and, they can’t be moved to external.
@CuriosityCafe
@CuriosityCafe 21 день назад
They will go to external if you have it set up properly and install the apps properly. Are you using Aptoide to install your apps? Or just doing the firestick app store that have built in apps?
