When I bought my 10.1 tab from Verizon I also purchased the USB adapter, thinking that it would allow me to access a thumb drive from my tab. I have tried several thumb drives so far and not been successful. When I plug in my older smaller ones (<4Gb), I get a warning in the tray that I plugged in a high power USB device, but nothing shows up in file manager. I have tried both Astro and Ghost Commander, and while both show a USBDrive mount point at the top of the file system, no files ever show up on the drive. Attempting to put a file in that directory, corrupts the thumb drive that is attached and I have to reformat it next time I plug it back in my laptop. Using a larger drive >= 4Gb just highlights the USB icon, but has the same behavior. Do I have to have a specific format on my USB thumb drive to see it on the tablet, and if so is there an app to do that? Or am I just missing a driver?
I have a 4G tablet and am running version 3.1.
Also, I have seen mention of SD Card access supposedly part of the USB adpater kit. Mine did not come with that. was there supposed to be another part besides the adapter itself?
Thanks!
