Options:
* exFAT: default for USB drives, good cross-platform.

CAUTION: Formatting a drive will erase all data on it. Only format if you don't need the existing data or you have a backup.
On Windows, you can format removable drives via File Explorer (“Format…”) or Disk Management.
On macOS, you can format a drive using the Disk Utility.
=== Making Backups
We recommend you routinely make backups. Backups will help you when your hard drive fails and also when you accidentally delete data.
