I'm in the middle of migrating to Mac. I'm about to reformat my external storage, a WD MyBook 2 TB-Raid1. I was planning on reformatting to HFS+ but a friend told me he was told by a Mac vendor to format his external disc to Fat 32 in order to keep compatbility among operating systems like Mac and Windows.
Now, this sounds great, but I know FAT 32 has limitations of 4gb file size and 32gb volume size.
I would not be concerned about this limitations because my picture files are far from this limit. On volume size I don't know. What exactly is a "volume"?
Chances are, I'll start producing small videos for events now that the VSLR is a reality.
I will purchase a 5D2 whenever is available.
Also, I think I'll keep Windows under Bootcamp for those files coming from else like tiff and coreldraw (for instance).
Please comments, thoughts, warnings, anything . Thanks a lot.
