Is it possible to transfer files from my mac partition to my pc partition on the same computer while I am running mac os? If it is, how do I go about doing it? If it isn't possible, are there any ways of doing such an action other than using an external HD which I currently do not own. Thanks.

If your PC partition is FAT32, the file transfer should be a non-issue. Just drag and drop. However, if you have formatted to NTFS, then you will need either the NTFS3G driver (+Macfuse) or install Paragon NTFS for Mac ($30) which enables read/write.

FAT32 = read+write
NTFS = read only
