• Unable to format an ext. USB HDD's partition as HFS+ in Big Sur v11.6.1

    From Ant@21:1/5 to All on Wed Dec 1 01:57:01 2021
    Hello.

    Did Big Sur v11.6.1's Disk Utilty app remove the option to format an ext. USB3 Seagate 6 TB
    HDD's partition as old HFS+? I still want this old FS to be backward compatible with older
    Macs like 2008 and 2012 MBPs. Do I need to use an old Mac to do this? :(

    Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)
