Ext4 filesystem?

Hi,

I have a WD My Passport Wireless Pro, and read that it’s possible to reformat the drive.

I’d rather use ext4. I’ve ssh’d into the drive and verified the onboard kernel supports it. Before I try anything brash (like ‘mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda2’), has anybody done this? Are there any special steps that need to happen?

Thanks!

Hello brianwarner,

WD does not provide support on this. You may take help on the Internet.
