[QUOTE="Raijer, post: 244004"] I too have a Memorex, but at this point, it doesn't work at all between my Mac and PC. My PC has a NTFS system, a far better configuration for both security,recovery, and stability reasons on Windows XP, however; Mac's OS X doesn't recognize this format - only the inferior FAT format, as dtravis has mentioned. Not knowing this, I plugged my Memorex flash drive into my Mac and saw a big fat zero. So it's not all as easy as some would have you believe. My next step is to take my flash drive home, and see if I can configure in a different file system format than my PC hard drive (i.e. FAT). Wish me luck. :mac: [/QUOTE]
