Formatting USB Drives
When using a disk with the Blackmagic Cloud Pod, it needs to be formatted in HFS+ or ExFAT.
Most disks come as NTFS format, but the disk needs to be reformatted to work with the cloud
pod. This section explains how to format disks on your computer.
Formatting Drives on a Mac
The Disk Utility application included with Mac can format a drive in the HFS+ or ExFat formats.
HFS+ is also known as Mac OS Extended which includes a journaling feature that helps the
drive recover if it has a problem.
Make sure you back up anything important from your drive as you will lose everything on it
when it is formatted.
