I'm using a 64 GB USB Drive on my Wii and USB Loader GX claims that the USB cannot be initialized

Make sure you're using this USB port

Double check the partition style is MBR: https://www.howtogeek.com/245610/how-to-check-if-a-disk-uses-gpt-or-mbr-and-how-to-convert-between-the-two/

Drive is 64gb or less: Format it to FAT32 with 32kb (32768) cluster / allocation unit size.
Drive is larger than 64gb: Format it to FAT32 with 64kb (65536) cluster / allocation unit size.

If the drive is larger than 32GB, you will need third party software like GUIFormat or Wii Backup Manager to format your drive to FAT32
