      Hi,
      I use pi imager to format to fat32 and install retropie (latest from the imager) into 480 ssd (this spec https://www.ebay.com/itm/265245183201?hash=item3dc1d84ce1:g:RqsAAOSwQCxhAUV7)

      when putting it on pi4 usb (blue connection) it works, but I'm not sure the filesystem expanded in first boot. (i install twice and the result is the same).

      when I run

      df -u

      I don't get the full 480GB.

      I also tried to expand filesystem using raspi-config. and acts as if it did the expantion and says that in next reboot it will show the full FS, but when rebooting, i still get a low disk size.

      any idea why?
