[QUOTE="Inspiron, post: 755245, member: 58981"] Hi! I've installed Macfuse and NTFS-3g and they work just fine. But now I need help in finding a solution to backup my files. On my Windows laptop I used to use the software (Maxtor Manager) bundled with my external hard drive (Maxtor OneTouch 4 500gb), this app is also available for Mac but the first step in installing it is to format my hard drive to HFS, I don't want to do that. Time machine also doesn't recognize NTFS formatted drives. So my question is: are there any (free) alternatives to backup my macbook? (I don't want to manually drag and drop files to the hard drive once in a while to backup my files because the process will simply replace OR: I could format my drive to HFS but how can I make my Windows XP laptop use the drive (for free)?
