exFat support
ExFAT should come standard, no request necessary. We're in a future now where multiple operating systems and platforms are in use daily, NTFS isnt very friendly. FAT32 has its limitations with a 4GB file size limit and a maximum 2TB partition size, so it's not suitable for content creators. I've been a customer for 5 years and feel it's unnecessary for me to have to ask for this basic feature to be added. please add exFAT support. Thank you.

When will the feature be released? I have the same use case as the OP

Also asking that this be fixed. I used to be a very enthusiastic Dropbox user and thought I'd revisit it but am not reformatting a 6TB drive from exFAT to NTFS (and shuffling around just under 6TB of files to make it happen). That is insane.
You guys have been asked to provide this feature multiple times over many years (just Google it as I did), I don't understand the unwillingness to fix this problem as it surely costs you customers.
