Hi all! Its been a while since upgraded my storage so I would like to ask how to do it correctly in 2024. I will use SSD for OS/soft and this HDD (WD red plus) will be mainly foe media. So the questions are:

Is there any reason to partition it? Should I format it? If yes, is NTFS still the best choice? Maybe there is something else I need to do before using it?
