USB Device Requirements

HFS, and HFS+.
When you purchase a USB storage device, the package typically identifies its format. For information about
how to format a USB storage device using a Windows or Mac computer, consult the help instructions for
your computer or operating system.You might need to use a specific application to format a USB storage
device.
