WD16001032: Down to MacBook If Used for Windows PC

Can I download (only) to my MacBook, if my MyBook WD16001032 was previously used with a Windows based PC (Fat 32)? My goal is to retrieve sll stored data. Thanks,

Hi Rick1947, welcome to the WD Community. You will be able to use the My Book on your Mac depending on the format it has. If it’s currently formatted in FAT32 then you should be able to write or read files.

Thank you, it worked great. If I understood your response correctky, I will not have to re-format the MyBook to use on my MacBook Pro as long as it is in FAT32 format.

Hi again Rick, that is correct.
