[QUOTE="eric, post: 282636, member: 22327"] i'll take the other half of that... on a mac, connect the drive. go to disk utility in your utilities folder in your applications folder. select the top evel for the external drive (this should be easily evident) and select partition. the next steps will vary slightly depending on whether you want or already had partitions or not. but everything from here is pretty self explanitory - choose a name for the volume(s), choose a format (fat32), and sizes for partitions if you decide on having partitions at all. once all your options are selected, click "partition" on the bottom right of the tool.
