What is the preffered file format of the external media.

Thread needs solution

Hello All,

 

As the title says. I'm attenpmting round two of using the Mac version of acronis. What is the best file format for Acronis to backup to?

NTFS requires a 3rd party driver, so i'mpretty sure that's out.

Exfat is available but fragile. 

I've destroyed my previous install last time I tested the restore capabilities of the Mac version. I'm a trust but verify kind of guy, so here i am again. getting ready for round two.

PS: the online chat feature of support is broken, both in Chrome and Safari. (refuses to spawn the chat bubble)

Hello Jean Taggart,

you can use any file system which is supported by MacOS natively. This can be HFS+, ExFAT or FAT. Due to FAT file size limitation it would be better to chose between HFS+ and ExFAT. There is no preferable file system for Acronis True Image 2016 among these two. It is up to you to choose considering how all pros and contras of file systems better fit your needs.

Thank you.
