TOPIC

    Recently, I have upgraded to a larger non-Apple hard drive replacing the original Apple hard drive that shipped with my Macintosh/Power Macintosh computer. I have been using Drive Setup to initialize, partition and test my original hard drive.

    Can I used Drive Setup to initialize, partition and test my new non-Apple hard drive?


DISCUSSION

    The Drive Setup application is qualified for those hard drives which were shipped by Apple in Apple Macintosh/Power Macintosh computers. While Drive Setup may initialize non-Apple hard drives, Apple is unable to fully test or support issues that may arise from these hard drives. For non-Apple hard drives, Apple recommends that customers use third-party formatting utilities.
