[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1400074, member: 46727"] If you wish to use the drive for both your new iMac and PC you can keep it formatted as FAT-32. The very handy "Partition Magic" (now owned by Symantec) can non destructively partition the drive, however, it will not work with HFS+, only FAT-32 and NTFS. Or, you can purchase [URL="http://www.coriolis-systems.com/iPartition.php?gclid=CN7xnIiy268CFeJgTAodNgKdAw"]iPartition[/URL] which works on all three formats: HFS+, FAT-32, and NTFS. [/QUOTE]
