Follow your operating system prompts to format or mount the drive if required; do not invent partitioning schemes that conflict with your workflow or OS requirements.
Usage recommendations
For reliable long-term operation, keep the drive on a stable, well-ventilated surface during heavy use and maintain regular backups. Use a USB 3.2 Gen 2 or Thunderbolt-capable host port to achieve the highest sustained transfer rates, and ensure your editing software and file system settings are optimized for large-file workflows.
