I will do my best to test FAT32 from windows and see if the reverse works.Ĭonclusion: ExFat formatted drives form the MAc appear to work. performance is good, 1 hour to move data.ĪM Update 2: the Exfat could not be mounted on Raspi, installed "apt-get install exfat-fuse" and the drive is readable and writeable.ĪM Update 3: Using Parallels on Mac, I started Windows 7 and it can also write and read from the partition. Formatted 500 GB drive with ExFat (FAT32) on Mac. I will post a reply with my exact issue soon.ĪM Update 1: (I typed earlier, but doesn't appear here).
It is possible Mac doesn't like FAT with Linux mix. I also will be aware of the multiple partitions. What I am hearing FAT is the primary choice. It might be my confusion on NTFS/FAT32/FAT16. Mac has difficult time writing to FAT (my opinion). I agree FATXX should be fine for Windows and Raspbian. I will build my external SD/stick/HD with FAT like the boot partition is and post my difficulties (if I run across). The ExFat format is the one to use if you need to store larger files. I am puzzled as why you are having difficulties. ExFAT The Extension File Allocation Table Format is compatible with later versions of macOS, Windows, and Linux systems. It is also the only part of the SD card that Mac can access easily. After all, the Boot area of the Pi is FAT format and it can easily read and write that.
