3. In Windows 98 SE and Mac OS cannot recognize HDD which already
formatted in Windows 2000 / XP.
Please refer to the following to confirm if you are using a supported file format
3. The description of hard disk capacity calculated
As the hard disk supplier’s operation system is different, it will have a different
method of calculation capacity. So showed capacity is less than the hard drive
marked capacity. This calculates capacity indication of a hard disk at 1GB
=1000MB, but a calculation on the OS is calculated at 1GB =1024MB.
For example: Three 400GB combined into one hard disk, the disk space is
1.2TB, after the operation system formatting, the differences as below:
∆ WINDOWS system can only format FAT32 file system to 32GB, if you need to
format the hard disk over 32GB,please use other vendor programs, such as
“Norton Partition Magic”.
‡ MAC OS can not format FAT32 file format, please format hard drive in the
