Manufacturer utilities can be temporarily stored on the computer. That way I know I have a clean virgin drive with no malicious software on board. I use Disk Utilty, immediatly on a new hard drive. THIS IS THE WAY I GO ABOUT INAUGURATING A NEW DRIVE AND REGULAR, PREVENTATIVE MAINTANANCE SYSTEM. This log helps the operating system restore the volume to a usable state if a power failure or other problem interrupts the disk’s operation and damages files. You system will be more reliable, long term.Ī Mac OS Extended volume can be journaled, which means that the operating system keeps a continuous log (journal) of the changes made to the files on the volume. Thinking about your options a bit, I think I should advise you to take the trouble to reformat any drives you have as Mac OS Exxtended (Journaled). If you want to know more about the subject:
Name the disk, select Mac OS Extended (Journaled), and press the Applied button. Use Disk Utility, select your disk, and use the Partition Tab. It shouldn’t affect you if you are happy with the way it is right now. However, You may wish to continue as you are, and ignore this message. And that means moving your data to another location whilst you reformat the drive. If you wish to change to Mac OS Extended Journaled: I always format a new drive as Mac OS Extended (Journaled), immediatly and before use. Mac OS Extended (Journaled) is the normal recomended way to format your drives, internal and external. The formatting decides the way the files are stored on your hard disk. With the release of the Mac OS X 10.2.2 update on November 11, 2002, Apple added optional journaling features to HFS Plus for improved data reliability. Mac OS Extended (Journaled) or HFS Plus is a file system developed by Apple Inc.
