Configuring your
SSD
2go
for FAT32 is
sometimes required for it to be compatible
with a TV or hi-fi equipment.
The next two sections show how to configure a
SSD
2go
on a Windows and Mac computer.
If you are using a Windows computer, please
follow the instructions in the section
Configuring on Windows, and at step
3.B
,
select the
FAT32
option instead of the
exFAT
option.
If you are using a Mac computer, please follow
the instructions in section Configuring on Mac
OS X. At step
3
, select the
MS-DOS (FAT)
op-
tion instead of
exFAT
.
The Disk Management application is used to
partition and format drives. We can open it by
pressing the key combination
Win+R
. This will
show the “Run” dialog. Type
diskmgmt.msc
and press Enter.
Note
Alternative ways of opening the
Disk Management application are shown in the
Opening Disk Management section.
Partitioning a disk means the creating of sepa-
rate volumes (drive letters, mount points) on a
single physical disk. We will create only a single
volume on the disk.
1.
First we need to find the
SSD
2go
. The
window is divided into two parts, as shown in
. On top is a list of volumes and on the
bottom a list of physical disks. In the list of
physical disks, locate the
SSD
2go
.
The
SSD
2go
should be the physical disk on
the bottom of the list, but above any CD-ROM
drive.
