[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1369723, member: 131855"] Mac OS X can read NTFS drives but not write to one without third party software. You're options are either use something like [url=http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-mac/]PARAGON Software Group - NTFS for Mac, communication channel between Mac OS X and Windows[/url]. The other option is to use Disk Utility to format the drive to HFS+ extended journaled. If you go this route be sure to copy any important data from the drive first. Reformatting removes anything that is already on the drive. [/QUOTE]
