How to format second 80g hard drive for music studio applications and data storage the original 60g hard drive is partitioned for MAC OS9 and OSX?
It depends if you want the drive to be accessible from both OSes. If yes, then research what file system OS9 uses and format it with that. I think it's HFS. You're looking to have a file system on the drive that both OS9 and OSX can read, see? So if there's another file system that you prefer that both can read, you could use that, too. Making the secondary drive HFS+ will suffice. ----
