How to know Mac, Xbox and Windows can read your files? The following article will provide the perfect solution for your USB drive.

You often hear terms like FAT32 or NTFS so what are they and how are they different?

What is File System?

File System (also known as file system) has the function of organizing and controlling files. The file system helps streamline the data stored on the computer's hard disk, regularly controlling the physical location of every data component on the disk to allow users to quickly and securely access it. The file system depends on the operating system in use. The operating system will not be able to read data on drives using other file systems that the operating system does not support. Therefore, every time you reformat the drive, you will be asked to select the file system for that drive.

To choose the appropriate file system for removable drives, you should consider between two factors: usability and maximum capacity.

1. Mobility

The three most popular file systems today are NTFS (standard Windows), HFS + (standard OS X) and FAT32 (old Windows standards). Each operating system supports a different standard. For example, Windows 7 only supports NTFS and FAT32, cannot read data on drives that are formatted in HFS + format. In contrast, Mac OS only supports HFS +, does not support NTFS or FAT32.
Understanding this problem, Linux versions (specifically Ubuntu) can support both NTFS and HFS + so it is easier to move data from one system to another.
In addition, gaming consoles like Xbox360 and Playstation 3 also support a number of different file systems.

Currently, FAT32 is very popular due to the support of many devices and many operating systems. However, the limitation of FAT32 is the limit on the size of each saved file, and the capacity of the entire drive.

2. File size

  • @DarkOrb like others have mentioned, try using guiformat to format it as fat32 on PC, and then try it in your switch. Last edited by 8BitWonder, Feb 20, 2018 TheCyberQuake likes this.
  • From the Apple menu  in the corner of your screen, choose About This Mac. You should see the macOS name, such as macOS Mojave, followed by its version number. If you need to know the build number as well, click the version number to see it. Which macOS version is the latest?
  • That's exactly what I am saying. Or rather, we can change the way the hardware responds. The SD card slot can already detect and format an SDXC card, it just can't read the formatting of an SDXC card without telling it how.

FAT32 was developed many years ago, based on the FAT file system for DOS. Due to its long history, FAT32 only supports up to 4GB file size. Currently, if you want to save an HD movie on a hard drive, using FAT32 is really a big challenge.
Therefore, the new file systems such as NTFS, exFAT can solve the problem of file size, as shown in the following figure.

However, exFAT does not currently have many supported devices and operating systems. And NTFS only works on Windows, Linux, and Snow Leopard.
Conclusion: Based on the two factors above, please select the file system for your USB drive. FAT32 is still the right choice if you do not need to save a lot of files larger than 4GB.

Format the drive

- FAT32: FAT32 is commonly used for drives with capacity less than 32GB. Depending on the software used, you can create FAT32 drives up to several TB. Some software to format drives in FAT32 format:

  1. Fat32format or GUIformat (Windows): The FAT32 drive format tool in Windows is easy to use.
  2. Disk Utility (Mac): FAT32 standard disk format tool, available on Mac OS.
  3. GParted (Linux and LiveCD): Commonly used for Linux systems, and included in system rescue disks.

- NTFS and exFAT: There are two ways to format NTFS and exFAT drives.
Method 1: On Windows 7, go to Start menu to search for keyword ' Computer Management '. At the window that opens, select Disk Management , select the drive to format.
Method 2: Go toMy Computer , right-click the drive, select Format .

- HFS +: The Disk Utility in Mac OS will help you format the HFS + drive.

- EXT2 or EXT3: Not only supports FAT32, GParted also helps format the drive in EXT2 or EXT3 standard for Linux system.

The way you format your USB drive determines the speed of your Rekordbox export and if your drive is recognized by DJ controllers and CDJs like the CDJ 2000.
So, choosing the right settings is crucial for convenience and compatibility.
In this article I’ll dive into the right settings and how to format your USB drive for Mac and Windows the right way.

Can CDJs read exFAT / NTFS?

No, CDJs can’t!
They only read FAT32 and HFS+.
Which format is best and step-by-step format instructions you can read in this article.

Best format for CDJ USB

Gui Format Mac Os 10.10

The Pioneer CDJ machines support three types of file system formats:
• Microsoft FAT
• Microsoft FAT32
• Apple HFS+
Below you can find my recommended file system, pros and cons of each file system.
Later in this article I will give you step-by-step instructions to format your USB drive on Mac and Windows the right way.

You probably noticed that the supported standards are replaced by newer more reliable ones with less (storage) limitations.
FAT32 is replaced by NTFS in 1993, HFS+ is replaced by APFS in 2017.
I can only guess to why Pioneer choose to support these older standards instead of the newer standards, probably licensing issues.
For now, we have to work with the limitations.

Formatting USB drive on Windows for Rekordbox

We can’t format drives larger than 32GB with the Windows built-in tools.
So we need third party software called “Fat32 Format” (download: http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm )
We can also format smaller drives with Fat32 Format, so this is the method I’m going to use for this tutorial.
