On an Imac:1 Click on the apple icon 2Go into about this MAc 3 Click on more info4 click on storage 5 Disk utility 6 On left side click on on your flash drive and go to the erase function and from there you can change the format

Search for a program on the web called HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool. That should do it for you.

On a windows 7 pc you simply go to start menu - computer - right click the flash drive - left click "format" - left click the drop down menu - left click NTFS or Ex-FAT - and then press START. If I was going to use as a boot drive for, say restoring my operating system, I'd uncheck the quick format box and do a full format. I think this method works the same or similarly for XP or Windows 8, I haven't tried either in awhile. Cheers!

Likely it is FAT32, or maybe NTFS. Go here, and just format to FAT. http://download.cnet.com/USB-Disk-Storage-Format-Tool/3000-2094_4-75984825.html Use caution you are formatting the correct drive letter, or you may have disastrous results, by accidentally formatting an external drive, or SD Card.

Depends on how it's formatted. FAT, FAT32, exFAT or NTFS. While the earlier three support older systems they're not as robust and reliable as NTFS. If you're strictly Windows you can use NTFS. So, it sounds like you got a 64Gb drive--- but, remember, you loose space when it's formatted depending on the FS Type.

Yes, but it needs FAT32 file format and won't read NTFS* (which is default on most drives). This link shows how to quickly reformat your drive while also making sure you back up your data. http://www.wikihow.com/Format-FAT32

You can format the drive as FAT 32, Mac OS Extended, or NTFS. Your decision.

If you reformat the drive you'll erase all the present data on it. If it's a brand new drive, just format it for FAT32 and both -Win7 and OS X- can read it. As to the file size limit, there is none.

I think you mean NTFS, and yes.. Go to computer management - Disk Management - then format the disk to your needs

Hi, I'm Jewel with Kingston Technical Support and would like to address your question. All of our USB drives are formatted to FAT32 by default and do not require to be reformatted for use with any particular Operating System. FAT32 is an older file system that is compatible with all current operating systems.

NTFS, xFAT and FAT32. I use NTFS. Previsouly used FAT32 and had issues with the device not being detected on all devices. Re-formatted to NTFS and its perfect. I can't recommend this device enough. I get 150 Megabyes a second writes on this!

You need to download "DiscWizardSetup-16005840.en" form Seagate support site. Software will then format HD for use.

Kimberly, I would like to know more about why you're wanting to format this drive in FAT32. Is it for Mac/PC compatibility? I would also like to know how you're using or planning to use this drive as well. Hopefully you're installing these in a RAID or NAS device of some sort as they are best suited for that purpose. If not, then I would purchase a different drive. If you're still thinking about going with Western Digital, here's a link that explains their color coding and the capabilities of each color drive. http://www.wdc.com/en/products/internal/desktop/ I hope this helps.
