Thanks
 BTW, stick to HFS+ format and for the journalled, not journalled option, see what your audio app aditor says, usually, enable journalling on a hard drive will imper somehow its performances so it's not good for usual practice. Now I know Digidisegn after saying "no journaling on your audio HD" now is gone for "enable journaling" since PT 7… Journaling is a kind of safety belt when a crash happens, it's helps recover a drive after a crash fast and effectively, though you may lose data but at list the drive is in shape fast and sound, but it' simplies more r/w operations on it while you work.
