After initializing, the disk will be listed as “Basic” and “Unallocated”.
Right-click the drive to open the “new volume” context menu and select “New Simple Volume...” to start the
“New Simple Volume Wizard.
Leave the volume settings as defaults and select “Next”.
Cinedeck drives should only contain one volume or partition.
Leave the drive letter settings as
default unless you know what you
are doing and prefer specifying a
drive letter.
Select “Next”.
Select the desired file system
format: exFAT or NTFS. exFAT should only be used if the intention is
to offload media on a Mac OSX machine which does not have the
preferred NTFS read capability.
Rename the drive to something meaningful in the “volume label” field,
for example [850pro512_1234] where 512 is the size and “1234” are the
last few digits of the disk serial number.
Leave all other settings at defaults, asuring “quick format” is checked,
then select “Next”.
