Downloading direct to an SD card

[Rothbury]

Hi Guys

I have a Tf700 with a 64gb sd card. Can anybody explain how to download files (not apps) directly from the net to the card. I have searched in settings etc but can find nowhere to actually make it happen.

I would appreciate any and all advice.

Apps generally have their own default folder on which to download files to. Your best bet is to see if you can change it there. If not, just download it normally and then use a file manager to move it.

Well that would be fine but some of the files are bigger than the internal memory, hence the reason for wanting to download it direct to the 64gb card.

I find it much more reliable to DL via the computer and copy the file over.

I but have thought that the need for a remote DL app exists tho, something that you can que up via your PC's browser and the app would DL it to the location you specify, like telling Play Store to install an app and specifying what device.

You can tweak Chrome like a desktop pc, via chrome://flags

I have not tried this tho and you can screw up your browser doing this.

Huh, you can use a 64gb memory card? I thought the max memory card it could handle was 32gb. That is what all the specs I've read say.

64GB cards work fine.
