I originally named my external hard drive " Gaming Hard Drive" and had it formatted as Mac OS Journaled. I kept having issues with step two so i moved my files from the hard drive, back to the mac and reformatted it as MS-DOS (FAT32) after reading some older posts that others posted having the same issue.
