5.2. Disk Utility:
Format Disk
When you format the drive using the disk utility, it will create a single partition
using the FAT32 file system. If you create other partitions when connected
through USB or choose a different file system, keep in mind that the LAN disk
is only able to recognize the first partition and it has to be FAT32.
If you don’t use the disk utility to format the drive, make sure that you choose
the FAT32 file system, otherwise it won’t be recognized on the network.
Formatting the disk will erase all your data on the hard drive. Make sure to
backup you files BEFORE you click on
