Maybe a silly question, but isn't exFAT protected by some MS owned

already happened with FAT? It would make me wonder if not. Maybe you
could ask Samsung about that too, when you are there.

Because Samsung released the code under the GPLv2, and their lawyers
understand what that means, should answer any question you might have
about this.

thanks,

I'll have to thank for the clarification.
