I have not yet had a problem formatting any external HD for my Macs. It’s been
a while, but as I recall, it’s so easy it’s counterintuitive, especially if
you’ve come from Windows. Right now I’ve got one from Iomega and one from Other
World Computing running. The Iomega backs up extra copies of my RAW files when
I import into LR, and the OWC is my Time Machine.
