Procedure

While this drive is included on our qualified drives list for use with the TouchMix series, it requires a unique process for properly formatting it to FAT32. This particular drive comes with a format utility that is required to run when the drive is first connected to a computer system. This utility sets up and initializes the drive for use. The setup utility has an option to set the format as FAT32; however, this creates a partition on your drive and only allocates a small amount of space to the FAT32 portion. This requires the drive to be formatted a second time with a third party utility after running the initial setup utility. There are many free utilities available and you will find them with a simple web search.
