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.
