[QUOTE="CrimsonRequiem, post: 956557, member: 62286"] Well if your WD 500GB passport Hard drive is formatted as FAT32, you will be able to use it for both Mac and Windows. The only limitation is that you can't write anything larger than 4GB to the Hard Drive. NTSF needs special drivers for a Mac to be able to write to the Hard Drive, it shouldn't have any problems reading what's on the HDD though. Then we have Mac OSX Journaled which can only be read and written on by a Mac. [/QUOTE]
