[Q] New Sandisk 32GB micro sd card - how to format

Good afternoon

I had a 32GB sandisk (micros sdhc, class 10) in my S3 and recently it started to play up (stopped recognising it/said it empty) until it finally stopped working. I was just sent a replacement, and I would like to ask you if I should format it/partition it in a specific way so that I won't have any issues with it?

thanks for your help
