Most older, smaller (<4GB) USB thumb-drives would default to the FAT file system.Thank you. Is there a special way to format it? I'm used to using a USB stick at my job, I'm a Senior Master Ford Technician, to transfer files from a lap top to the vehicles USB port. When we format the USB stick, it's just a right click and select format type of thing.
Newer, larger guys default to FAT32 or exFAT, or NTFS. Windows is taking care of this for you, but you can intervene.

What @WiisardNic is pointing to is the (now) default Windows NTFS file system, which allows for system-level file compression, which Content Manager can leverage cleverly, for it's own use. What he's suggesting (if I understand correctly) is "move the whole AC install". Of course you could start over, and install clean...or...
My own spin on your question/quest, I leave the AC install on the internal nVME drive, but home the the content/cars and content/tracks (the big stuff) on an external SDD (WD Blue USB3.2), using Windows OS junctions, explained here:

Hey you guys, My AC install went blooey and I've spent the last 48 hours frantically trying to revive it. Uninstall/reinstall. CHKDSK. Move install to D: Integrity check. Everything. Nothing. I give up. What with hundreds of mods, Content Manager, Custom Shader Patch and all the rest...
So yes, it's quite possible.
