I just installed a My Book Home Edition. The documentation says it must be reformatted for windows. I have W7 on my machine. HOWEVER, the machine appears to be formatted for window already. It shows up as ‘F’ drive and takes files in the normal manner. Do I really need to reformat?
The WD My Book Home Edition is factory-formatted with the FAT32 file system, which is compatible with Microsoft Windows 7. However, I would recommend re-formatting the unit to the NTFS file system for better performance on Microsoft Windows-based systems.
Makes sense, thanks.
