We had no problems mounting and using very large internal drives on a pull-out and external drives. (500gb) However, the X48 will not seem to format large drives in anything other than NTFS, which we all know is an issue.
It's a Windows machine. FAT32 drives can't be bigger than a few GB. There are solutions for transferring files to a Mac, or you can just use Gigabit Ethernet.

It requires formatting by an external machine.
No, you can format disks from the X-48.
