[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1539258, member: 46727"] If you plan on transferring files to a Windows machine via a LAN, you don't need a special driver as the network software will take care of that. However, if you plan on transferring files from a Mac to a PC using an ethernet cable or USB, you'll need a driver in order to write to the PC. Windows PCs are formatted to NTFS which is a proprietary Microsoft file system. The driver that you will need is called [URL="http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-mac/"]Paragon NTFS[/URL] and will cost $19.95. If the PC is formatted to FAT-32, no driver is needed. [/QUOTE]
