when partitioning the external hard drive, I am making the bootable part in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) , but the other part wich is to backup my files should I do it in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) or Mac OS Extended ,please?
Most backup software recommends using HFS+. (Journaled)
Regards.
Yes, but by default (since 10.3), HFS+ is journaled. See here.It sounds like you are referring to HFS+ as intrinsically journaled. That is not the case. HFS+ is simply referring to Mac OS Extended.
