A "case-sensitive volume" is one on which the files

  • MAKEFILE
  • Makefile

are considered to be two different files. That is, the case of the letters matters. Unix filesystems are traditionally case-sensitive.


A "case-insensitive volume" is one on which the files

  • MAKEFILE
  • Makefile

are not considered to be two different files. Write a new file under either name and you overwrite the old one, no matter how you capitalized the letters.


Mac volumes are normally case-insensitive. So did you format a volume as case-sensitive?!?!? Or is the message at odds with the actual formatting of the volume?
