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. :)
OK, I figured it out. I have to format the disk container to do it.
That was confusing.
