You see, one of the few problems with the APFS format is that it’s not compatible with macOS releases older than macOS High Sierra. The main reason to still use Mac OS Extended (Journaled) is reverse compatibility. However, Mac OS Extended (also known as HFS Plus or HFS+) is still being used and, though it has a lot of disadvantages compared to APFS, there are several reasons why you may want to format a Mac hard drive (external or internal) to this format. Currently, the APFS file system is the default one in newer Mac models. Since the introduction of the newer, more advanced, and better optimized APFS file system that came with macOS 10.13 High Sierra, the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format started to get pushed to the sidelines.
