Just making sure I understand this correctly. This drive will work with both mac and windows without reformatting? I can work on a windows computer and then transfer the project to a mac and continue my work between the two operating systems and vice versa?
Asked by: Hayim
If you have something like Paragon NTFS for Mac, then it could be formatted for windows and work on both OS platforms but exFAT is the way to go.

Is APFS not an option for reformatting the Lacie Rugged Pro SSD?
Asked by: Lance
Using Apple's Disk Utility, in the menu bar at the top of your display screen, choose View: Show All Devices, then when you choose the Erase option, Scheme: GUID Partition Map, Format: APFS, (use the (Encrypted) or not depending on your needs) and give it a name. Then click Erase. I had to search around the internets to find that.

Do I have to format this ssd for my 2018 Imac pro or is it already formatted for it? plug and play?
Asked by: Douglas
It will work out of the box, however, it’s always a good idea to format any new drive and start from scratch. It takes about 30 seconds using disk utility. This drive comes shipped with some software from Lacie to register it, etc... so take a look through that before you format and decide if you want to use it. Otherwise, format with whatever file system you’d like to use and you’re good to go.
