When configuring the device, WD RAID Manager automatically formats the disk as a
single volume using the format and RAID type specified. FAT32 formats with a Master
Boot Record partition map for Windows compatibility.
The HFS+ setting formats with an HFS Extended w/ Journal volume using a partition
map type which best matches the Macintosh model the drive is currently connected
to. On Macintosh computers with PowerPC processor(s), an Apple Partition Map
structure is created. On Macintosh computers with Intel processor(s), a GUID
Partition Table is created.
