Thanks dUff

Mine was seeing my thumb drive fine until the latest update. Now, all of a sudden it won't read. It sees the "usbdrive" option in the emulators I installed, but but it doesn't see any of the directories or files on it when I select that. In fact, if I select usbdrive under Super GNES, it dumps me back to OUYA's main menu.

I have the same issue.. hopefully they'll fix this soon.

I've been having a hell of a time with a new 32GB USB 3.0 drive. Works great with anything else, can't get it to work in the OUYA with NTFS or FAT32 formatting. Finally got a smaller 8GB thumb drive to work under FAT32, but it wouldn't with NTFS.

Any thoughts/ideas?

Same here but it was a 250GB Western Digital HD in a NexStar case. Way to break my OUYA setup Boxer8.

EDIT: a hard reset restored USB access.

Remove it from power completely for about 30 seconds.

Yea, hard reset bring me no joy. It's clearly an issue with the latest firmware update. Ouya needs to fix this ASAP. 8GB is not nearly enough storage for a console that exclusively uses installed digital content; particularly when emulation is so far its strongest selling point.
