As said before, the big news here is that the Blackmagic Cloud Store is adding support for formatting drives on Cloud Store models with removable media, which will include Blackmagic Cloud Dock, Cloud Backup 8, Cloud Pod, and Media Dock.

Blackmagic Design has also shared that individual drives will now be able to be opened directly in Mac Finder or Windows File Explorer from the setup utility, an improvement that should save time and speed up workflows.
