I am coming back here for my continuing ed on building, and populating a really sweet build. However, this question shows a big hole in my ed. I am using the old WD 800 ( 80 GB) for an external HD. I have the enclosure on order but I want to prepare the HD for use. Right now, on Computer Management, I have my C drive recognized and partitioned and my external drive (H drive recognized as Healthy (Active, Primary Partition) It has 74.53 GB and FAT32) So, 1. should I convert to NTSF 2. do I need to partition a reserved section and 3. what is the process of using this thing ie storing pictures (step by step please)
