![]() ![]() ![]() I've tried to gleam some information about the drive but I still don't understand if it's okay. The spec sheet for exFAT is pretty dense. I also found two 2015 comments that link to a 2011 Mac help thread similar to what I quoted above. I found an official Microsoft page about what the default allocation unit size option does, but it isn't informative about minimums or maximums. When I look this up I don't find anything concrete. This error only appears the first time and doesn't happen the second time so it seems like it still works and works correctly. Now I have to hold my breath and make sure that all my files actually get saved. I only did the long format because I wanted the drive to check itself and log the results in S.M.A.R.T. Instead, I just did a quick format and it worked this time. It took at least 14 hours and probably longer. If I had the spare time I'd do another long format. I am only going this route because Mac computers, without third-party software installed to bridge the gap, can't write to the same >2TB drives that Windows 10 can outside of this method. ![]()
