Formatting Media on a macOS Computer
The Disk Utility application included with macOS can format a drive in the HFS+ or exFAT
formats. Make sure you back up anything important from your disk as you will lose everything
on it when it is formatted.
To format on a macOS computer:
1 Connect an SSD to your computer with an external dock or cable adapter and dismiss
any message offering to use your SSD for Time Machine backups.
For SD cards, insert the card into your computer's SD card slot, or connect it to your
computer via an external card reader.
2 Go to applications/utilities and launch Disk Utility.
3 Click on the disk icon of your SSD or SD card and then click the erase tab.
4 Set the format to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) or exFAT.
5 Type a name for the new volume and then click erase. Your media will quickly be
formatted and made ready for use with HyperDeck.
