File Formats
X5 is pre-formatted in using exFAT file system which is supported by Windows OS
and Mac OS. Whether data formatted to a certain format may be read or written to
your computer vary depending on the OS, as specified in the table below. If you use
X5 on a single OS, it is recommended that you format the X5 using the appropriate
file format for that OS. (e.g.) Read/write restrictions for file systems by each
operating system
File Formats Windows OS Mac OS
exFAT Both read and write Both read and write
NTFS Both read and write Read only
HFS Not recognizable Both read and write
* When using exFAT across multiple operating systems, data writing may become locked and you may
only be able to read data. If such problem occurs, you can restore write access by following the
instructions below.
Mac OS: Connect X5 to your Mac again, and perform Eject.
Windows OS: When the notice pops up saying that write access is disabled, click
“Scan and fix” to perform Check Disk (CHKDSK). If you did shut down the notice
without performing Check Disk, you may do it by selecting the drive → Right-click
→ Properties → Tools → click Check.
Capacity of X5 Displayed on the System
The capacity reported by the system to which X5 is connected may differ from the
labeled capacity, due to the difference between the decimal and binary systems of
measurement and other factors including the drive’s partitioning and blocking.
* e.g.: Windows OS: 1 GB = 1024MB, Mac OS: 1GB = 1000MB
Labeled capacity uses decimal system and is convertible as below:
1 GB=1,000,000,000 bytes, 1 TB=1,000,000,000,000 bytes
Lower capacity may be demonstrated by your computer due to use of a different measurement
standard.
