Hey,
Just a quick question.
I purchased an 80GB HDD and upgraded my external HDD (used to have a 30GB in). I formatted the 80GB as NTFS but later realised i want to make the drive cross platform, im just wondering if my iBook (iBook G4 less than 6 months old) will be able to "see" the HDD in NTFS format? Im not sure but i read somewhere that MAC's can only see FAT formatted drives?
If this is the case is there any way i can format the HDD on my iBook so that i can use it on both my Windows machine and my iBook.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Chris. :teen:
