SKYBOX F3S USB RECORDING PROBS

[pd2412]

Hi

Im trying to record on my F3S box via a USB.
When I have my small 2gb USB stick in it.... it pauses,rewinds and forward plays with no problems
however I have a message when I try to record saying USB TO SMALL TO RECORD which I can understand.

I bought a new 32gb USB and tried it and that where my problem is.
When trying to pause, rewind,forward and record I have messages saying Device speed to low to play and device
speed to low to record,
Also the channels scramble a lot and freeze when using the 32gb usb,

I've ran a read/write speed test on both USBs and the 32gb has a much better spec.
I don't know what to do next without purchasing a external hhd drive

Thanks PD2412
