Just purchased the card but it's a 64gig - can I format to 32gigs?

Hey all,
I really love the idea of the Downrush setup as a friend as I do a lot of chopping in Ableton as want to load and try stuff. So I saw this setup and purchased one.
It looks like the Delige only supports 32gigs.
Can I format it to 32gigs and still have it work?
Thanks,
Brett

It may work with a normal sd card but not sure it it works with this wifi card.
facebook is evilI'm on vacation but will be home late tonight. I'll give it a try this week. Worst case I sell it and buy another.
If you can format the whole card fat32 it might work. My problem when I tried to format cards larger than 32gb as fat32 was that windows no longer sees it correctly. My 128gb card showed the usage of 60gb when I loaded 60gb of samples on it, but it would not read it correctly and only showed a portion of the directories of samples I loaded on it, but still showed the correct space used.
I suspect I could read and write to it fine using a Linux live CD, but I’ve been too lazy to download one and try it. Was going to use the Linux Mint Live CD for this.
Eventually when I decide to download one, I’ll get to reporting if it actually works or not.
I think a 32 gig one is around 35 bucks - maybe I'll just do that. Keep it simple. 🙂

I use a 64GB Flashair card with my Deluge and Downrush without issues. You just have to format it to Fat32 first. Works fine.
Thank you!
Old thread but for others with this issue:
If it's a 64GB W04 FlashAir card on a mac, I got around this by reformatting it to FAT(32) using Disk Utility and then installed the latest FlashAir firmware: https://jp.toshiba-memory.com/ww/support/download/flashair/w04/update02.htm
