[QUOTE="infinitab, post: 1000269, member: 144135"] Hi, I am planning on re-formatting my external hard drive (used to be FAT32) and I am wondering what options I should choice in disk utility. I am planning on storing media on the hard drive and I don't need it to work natively with Windows. From my research online, these are the options I came up with: Mac OS Extended (no journaling) and GUID Partition Table scheme. I chose no journaling because I am not going to be using the drive as a start-up disk. Are those good choices? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
