monterey disk utility missing options
Recently upgraded from High Sierra to Monterey, and I just noticed Monterey's Disk Utility has fewer Format options than High Sierra had, when trying to erase a "WD My Passport 2626" 1TB external HDD.
For this external drive, the only Format options available are...
- Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
- Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled)
- MS-DOS (FAT)
- ExFAT
Is this something unique to mechanical hard drives? If so, which option is best if I only plan to use it with a MacBook Pro?
Fyi, my SSD boot drive is APFS formatted in a MacBook Pro 13-inch, Early 2015.
Thanks in advance!
