For Mac OS X, use the disk utility to format and create

partitions on your external disk.

• Select “Disk Utility” in the utilities folder
• Choose your external drive and format it according to your

requirements

For Mac OS X, we recommend formatting the drive using the

native Mac file system HFS+ also known as Mac OS Extended.

If you want to use your drive on a PC running Microsoft

Windows as well as on your Mac, we recommend you to use

the FAT32 file system. On your Mac, select MS-DOS when

formatting it. Note: The file size for a single file on FAT32 is

limited to 4GB.
