Reading external NVMe USB Drives

Any plans to accept USB NVMe drives?  It's not a performance issue on Roku Ultra, but copying media files onto a USB NVMe drive is so much faster.

PS: I've discovered my Ultra 4802X reads usb flash and ssd drives that are formatted exFat,

Re: Reading external NVMe USB Drives

I think it's very unlikely. Roku's are designed for Internet streaming. USB is just a add-on for basic picture and movie viewing. If you need something fancier, get something more expensive designed for home theater use.

Re: Reading external NVMe USB Drives

I disagree.  My Roku Ultra is more powerful than either of my 2 much cheaper Android boxes, both of which read my USB NVNe drive.  The only weak spot of my Roku Ultra is it's lackluster media player and USB implementation.
