Disk Management (Disk Format)
To format a hard drive or array, select it from
the Target Disk drop box. Choose the le
system desired from the File System dropbox
(internal drives can only be formatted with XFS).
Note that FAT32 has a 2 gigabyte single le size
limit. If you choose FAT32 for your le system,
you will not be able to store single les larger
than 2 gigabytes on the drive. Use of the XFS or.
EXT3 le systems is recommended. Press Select
Target Disk when done.
Depending on the size of the target hard disk or
array, a Disk Format may take several hours to
complete. Performance will be slow during the
disk format.
