[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1466025, member: 24160"] You will pay for the same apps that you would pay for in Windows. Windows is a Windows only world. It cannot natively write to OS X nor Linux partitions. It is going to cost a little bit more money to be a multi-platform house than to stick within the confines of a single platform - shouldn't be any surprise there. That extra expense may or may not be worth it to everyone. And it will cost you nothing if the drive is formatted for OS X rather than being formatted for Windows. No difference than if you had a drive formatted for Linux or OS X and wanted to use it on a Windows machine - you'll have to get an app for Windows to enable write capability for different file types.
