The smallest USB-C drive I can find is the Sandisk Ultra Dual Drive m3.0 but that only goes to 256GB. It seems to be a chip-size limitation across everything I've looked at that more than 256GB means larger physical size.I will keep as is until i can find/or they make a small profile type-c drive
Thanks for all the help guys
I tried moving some files to my Google drive and it seems to work.Got more space anyway

It has an SDXC card support which go to 2TB so use a larger SD card?
I'd keep the internal and external storage seperate. Not sure why you are recommended to only use 128GB of 256GB

lenovo site is listing 128GB as max sd size i have a 256 GB card working fine though
I did not think it would support them
UPDATE
Got a 512GB card in the sales
had a bit of fun getting it to format as FAT32
and loaded it up with my files,tablet sees it ok ,makes me wish i had got a 1TB card instead

found that out when trying to flash my monitor firmware
can probably do it in cmd/diskpart or powershell
but HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool or easeus partition manager free
or aoemie partition software also free
are all useful and will do it for you
Yeah I used Rufus in the end,
Seems to be working ok.i even picked up a usb-c ti micro SD adapter just in case

If you are worried about snapping the port, have a look at the usb-c magnetic adapters - a little nub goes in the port and a magnetic connector snaps to that - similar to the apple magsafe system
interesting
Got this working now but i will look into this as well
Only problem i could see is that i would need the right angles mag usb-c THEN an adapter to take a USB memory stick (as usb-c memory sticks are currently not large enough storage )
Better off formatting it with exFAT, plenty of things (Windows, Linux, macOS, ChromeOS) support it but you may come across some edge cases.
