I have an external hard drive & I used disk utility to format the drive in HFS mode.
On connection to the Mac the drive is recognised.
However upon moving a 1gb file to the external drive can
take around 30 mins ??
Ive tried another hard drive formatted & partitioned in the same way & the data transfer is rapid, 1gb in about 1 min !
Just trying to work out why one drive is faster than the other ??
Anyone shed any light on the matter ?
Ive loaded Macfuse & NTFS-3G, but still same issue.
