Just wanted to add that I also did not see the option to format with exFAT when creating the partition using "Disk Management". But if I created the partition without formatting, first. Then the formatting option include exFAT.

format exfat
I am using win 7 home 32 bit. I tried to format a 1tb hard drive to exfat using disk management and other methods. The command prompt will probably work but it appears to be the only way. Disk management only provides NTFS and no other. I placed the drive on an apple machine and it took less then one second to format to exfat. Drive now works with apple and microsoft. No problem. Why does microsoft not have exfat on disk management?

Windows exFAT disk on Mac
Supadupa wants to format a disk as exFAT to be used with both Windows and Mac. If you have a Mac, the easiest way is to format the disk in the Mac environment using Disk Utility. It takes a second.

exFAT format?? I just built a new machine and want to test my luck with Win 7 on it. The OS HD is a SSD so I am really interested in using the exFAT format.
