[QUOTE="chscag, post: 936280, member: 46727"] You would only need Paragon NTFS if you formatted the external to NTFS. If you decide to format it to HFS+, your MBP would have R\W capability but Windows would not. Then you would need to use MacDrive. One more note: The latest Paragon NTFS is still a bit unstable. I have removed it from my machine and instead am using the built in capability of Snow Leopard to R\W to NTFS. However, that capability is not turned on by default. Use this free program to turn it on: [URL="http://ntfsmounter.com/"]LINK[/URL] (NTFS Mounter) Regards. [/QUOTE]
