Drive is larger than 64gb: Format it to FAT32 with 64kb (65,536 bytes) 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

To take the A+ certification test I had to pay 600 usd.

#

Its 300 usd per portion of the test.

#

There are two parts.

#

And the cert expires in 3 years...

I hope so too.

I wish I could show proof of it but doing so would put too much PII on discord so anyone would know my middle name and where I live...

I don't think anyone over discord needs to see it. Just show it to an employer lol

Anyway we've been off topic for a while
