Disk Management (Disk Format)
To format a hard drive or array, select it from
the
Target Disk
drop box. Choose the file
system desired from the
File System
dropbox
(internal drives can only be formatted with XFS).
Note that FAT32 has a 4 gigabyte filesize limit
for individual files. If you choose FAT32 for your
file system, you will not be able to store single
files larger than 4 gigabytes on the drive. Use of
the
XFS
or
EXT
file systems is recommended.
Press
Select Target Disk
when done, and then
Start format
.
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.
