[Leaplist] Hard Drive Formatting

[Kyle Gonzales]

All hard drives do not come formatted, but most if not all external
hard drives do.

However, you can reformat and partition the drive if needed.  My
external drive has two partitons, one is FAT32, one is ext3.

Using them for backups should be fine.
