At the Wii Disc Ripper Setup screen, setting '''Chunk Size''' to '''"Max"''', and '''New device per chunk''' to '''"No"''' is recommended with SD cards or external USB storage devices large enough to hold the entirety of the ripped disc file at once. Otherwise, set '''Chunk Size''' to max possible ('''"1GB"''', '''"2GB"''', '''"3GB"''', or '''"Max"''') and set '''New device per chunk''' to '''"Yes"''' and when CleanRip is asking for the next device, remove it from the Wii and move the first or so ISO file | At the Wii Disc Ripper Setup screen, setting '''Chunk Size''' to '''"Max"''', and '''New device per chunk''' to '''"No"''' is recommended with SD cards or external USB storage devices large enough to hold the entirety of the ripped disc file at once.

These file systems have a max file size of 4GiB. To remedy this, it is recommended to rip discs to a USB external ''NTFS'' formatted storage device (as Wii cannot read NTFS formatted SD cards). The ''NTFS'' file system has a ''theoretical'' max file size of 16 EiB (Exabyte), or 16,777,216GiB. | ||
