Just watched Troy’s yootoob
on adding storage to firestick.
I added a seagate slim 2T to firestick 4K max using the mission power cable (to run firestick off TV power) and OTG cable to add drive. I did this after watching

I have a 2014 Bravia TV and using the tv’s usb with the mission power adapter was to shut off the firestick with the TV. Now I’m getting a message that power from the TV usb port is not enough power for both the firestick and the drive. Maybe I should go back to plugging it in?
Troy’s instructions to split the file storage on the drive seems like a better way to format the seagate slim. 2T is a lot of space just for apps.
All input from fellow insiders are appreciated.
I am pretty good at following Troy’s instructions, but my IT education is self taught. I just want to expand the firestick storage and save some videos from Rumble, YT and Bit Chute. We still have Dish TV - my husband is old school LOL.
