Home Digital Drive

Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: MS-DOS FAT

EDIT: I had another thought. Not being familiar with your SSD or the USB port on the Oppo raises a couple more questions:

- What SSD is it? What type of enclosure is the SSD housed in and is there a USB 2 or USB 3 connection on the enclosure?

- What happens if you get a USB Y cable and supply extra power to the SSD? The thought being, there might be sufficient power from your USB port for the thumb drive but it might be marginal for powering the SSD. Although, SSDs do not draw a whole lot of power. Just a thought.

--------------

If I'm not mistaken your goal was to Read & Write files & folders to the SSD using the Mac.

Is that working?

AND the SSD has to be compatible with the Oppo.

Is the Oppo able to play music from the SSD?

If you are experiencing drop-outs or long pauses in audio it is most likely not the newly partitioned & formatted SSD but I have not read the Oppo manual and do not know it's specific disk & file requirements.

Have you tried a standard USB non-SSD hard drive?

I would be surprised if the Oppo cannot read a MS-DOS FAT formatted disk... the Mac can.

If the Oppo is more inclined to read SD cards and USB sticks then formatting the SSD using ExFAT might be an another option that jusbe mentioned in this thread. Again, you can use the Mac's built-in Disk Utility.
