Is an external drive formatted to FAT32 the best way to transfer files from a Mac to a PC?
I'm guessing it will still only be 4gb max?

Is there another way to move larger amounts of data?

Regards,
Gary

An external drive formatted to FAT-32 may not be the best way but it's certainly the easiest. You could also setup a network between your Mac and PC to do the same thing. Or, you could buy a NTFS driver and install it on your Mac as that would allow you to directly write to the PC. We recommend Paragon NTFS for that.
