Required MicroSD Card Formats
For microSD cards up to 32 gigabytes in capacity, SHIELD supports the FAT32 data
format. Most microSD cards that are 32-GB or less are already formatted as FAT32.
For microSD cards up to 64-GB in capacity, SHIELD supports the NTFS data format.
Most microSD cards that are 64-GB or larger come formatted as exFAT and must be
reformatted before you can use them with SHIELD. Android does not support the
exFAT file system.
NOTE You can reformat microSD cards on your Windows PC or Mac computer.
