USB Flash Drive Path Conventions

Access to the USB flash drive memory requires that a valid USB flash drive label be used at the beginning of the path, followed by the relative path to the USB flash drive.

(Valid USB Flash Drive Label)/(Relative Path)
  • A valid USB flash drive relative path starts with //, /, \\, or \.
  • This is immediately followed by usbflash which is followed by \ or /.
  • This path label is case insensitive.

The usbflash folder is created inside the userdata folder to maintain compatibility with the Simulator.

File access points to userdata/usbflash when a PCMM2G usbflash path is used on the Simulator.
