6.3 Mac OS

Mac version OS9.2 (and earlier) does not support creating partitions on an external hard drive. To do that

you would need to purchase additional software. Initializing is no problem on all Operating Systems. For

OSX use the Disk Utility to format and create partitions on your external hard drive.

Select ”Disk Utility “ in the utilities folder

Choose your external drive and format it according to your requirement
