[QUOTE="GrahamHCB, post: 1541374, member: 311656"] When my imac arrives I intend to put my 5 year old Windows XP computer to bed for ever, the hard drive makes worrying sounds after an overnight shut down and BSOD have been showing up too often. So I don't intend to share my external HDs with Windows myself. On the other hand my wife and son have Windows laptops so the option to share could be useful, which is why I think I'll get Paragon and leave the drives on NTFS. Otherwise I'll have to copy all those backups somewhere else before reformatting for mac and then paste them all back again. As my new imac will have a 3TB Fusion drive the 3TB external won't be twice the size of TM. But that should be ok, shouldn't it? Graham [/QUOTE]
