Formatting the UMS Device

The NET-G3A requires an external UMS device formatted for the
FAT32 file system. The UMS device can be formatted using the
internal Disk Management application provided by Microsoft
Windows; however, this application cannot create partitions larger
than 32 GB. For more information about FAT32 limitations and how
to format the UMS device to the FAT32 file system using the Disk
Management application, refer to Microsoft® Help and Support at
www.support.microsoft.com. If you want more than 32 GB of disk
space on the UMS device, then use external disk-partition software.
CAUTION
