The Fiio X3 Thread.
Dec 24, 2014 at 2:58 AM Post #14,131 of 17,481
I wonder if it is possible to enable the X3 to format to FAT micro SD cards of greater than 32 GB? Although the Windows PC is ,I mites to 32 GB, and though there are third party tools mentioned on this thread to perform FAT formatting on micro SDs greater than 32 GB, it would sure be simpler if the X3 could do so directly.

Also, how about a simple copy from CD to X3 at full CD quality, rather than ripping the CD onto the PC with some tool and then transferring to the X3

Regardless, I have had my X3 for only a bit more than a week, and I LOVE it!

You do realize the X3 can format mSD cards up to the max available (currently 128gb). It has for quite a while and it is highly recommended to do so with the X3.

Go to settings and choose format.

Actually, no I did not know..l I thought that it was (still)limited to 32 GB. Off to buy some 64 GB or 128 GB cards. Thank you, x RELIC x!
