I never tried flashdrives larger than 1 GB with my deneb, but I do use an 80 GB usb HD, and that works like a charm.
I just partitioned and formatted the drive. Didn't have to do anything extra.

The filesystem I used is SFS.

If HDToolbox is giving you troubles, try HDInstTool instead.

An external USB HD uses the same device driver as a flashdrive, so I don't know why it shouldn't work.

*edit because of typo.*

Why don't you try SFS?

BTW if you bought it through ebay, I hope you didn't get one of these.

You better test it on your mac to be sure.

There is some info on the site I mentioned to test if it's fake or not.

Thanks for the update.

This is exactly the reason why I buy my CF cards and flashdisks at regular shops.
I really don't need this kind of sh!t.

I do hope you get your money back.
