4. General information
CAUTION!
When formatting your hard disk all data contained on the disk will be deleted.
We do not assume any liability for lost data.
Comments on the file systems
• If you intend to work with access control for files and folders or require support
for restricted accounts, we recommend the use of NTFS as file system.
• The NTFS file system is also more suitable than FAT for large data carriers.
CAUTION!
If you have already formatted a disk drive or a partition in NTFS, you need to reformat
it before you can reconvert it to FAT or FAT32. Any data contained in the partition will
be deleted by this process without exception.
