You can choose to create
several partitions but be aware
that if you want to change this
at a later point, it’s required to
format the drive again or use
3rd party software.
Win98/SE and WinME do not
recognize NTFS formatted
drives, so if you want to use
your drive on those platforms,
we recommend you to use
FAT32 instead.
If you use this device to backup
your data using a 3rd party
software running MS-DOS, we
recommend you to format the
drive using FAT32.
Partitioning & Formatting
Be aware that this will destroy all your existing data on the drive, so make sure you have a backup!
This step is usually only required the first time you install a factory new hard drive, if you change
the format or want to erase all data on your drive.
PC running Win98/SE or WinME：
MS-DOS command “fdisk” (press Enter to confirm)
•Type “fdisk” and press Enter
•Select ”Y” and press Enter
•Enter "5” to change the drive
•Select the drive you want to format
•Choose “1” and follow the onscreen instructions

- - 11 - -
Mac OS does not recognize
NTFS formatted drives, to use
your device on both platforms,
we recommend you using
FAT32.
If you use Win2000 or WinXP
or WinVista or Win7 and FAT32,
the biggest single partition you
can create will be 32GB. To
create larger partitions, you
need to use the DOS
command under Win98SE or
WinME or change to NTFS
format.
If you can not see the drive,
make sure the jumper settings
of your hard drive are correct,
the drivers are installed and the
power is turned on.
PC running Win2000 or WinXP or WinVista or Win7:
Disk Management Program
•Right click on “My Computer” and choose “Manage”
•Select “Disk Management”
•Choose the drive you want to format and right click on it for further commands (Choose New
Partition)
•Follow the Partition Wizard

- - 12 - -
If you want to use your drive on
a PC running Microsoft
Windows as well as on your
Mac, we recommend you to
use a PC to format the drive.
Choose FAT32 when formatting
and do not change anything on
the partition or format on your
Mac, otherwise the PC will not
be able to recognize the drive
anymore.
If you can not see the drive,
make sure the jumper settings
of your hard drive are correct,
there are no extension conflicts
and the power is turned on!
Mac OS:
Mac OS9.2 and earlier, does not support creating partitions on an external drive. To do that, you
would need to purchase additional 3rd party software. Initializing is no problem on all Operating
Systems.
For Mac OS X, use the Disk Utility to format and create partitions on your external disk.
•Select “Disk Utilities” in the utilities folder
•Choose your external drive and format it according to your requirement
