I'd be surprised if Emotiva wasn't updating firmware for something as recent as the XMC-2.

It's definitely a possibility that your drive, physically, is the problem. Sometimes drives with large capacities won't mount. I would try to make sure you're using an 8GB or 16GB USB 2.0 flash drive

Not specifcally with an Emotiva processor, but I have other devices run by computers that require firmware updates via USB and large capacity drives have always been catch as catch can. Luckily, you can fetch a small drive USB for next to nothing making it easy to test! ;-)
