[QUOTE="DILLIGAF, post: 1812411, member: 401698"] Ok so I did my research and found that I "can" run windows with bootcamp from my WD Passport 1tb external hard drive..the whole reason to run windows is only for the game DAYZ so I can play it with my teenage son as it is not supported on my brand new MacBook Pro that my awesome wife got me for Christmas....No other reason for windows..... I just ordered my external and it should arrive in 2 days.... my question is this: Once I install Windows on the external hard drive, will I still be able to use the external for other storage such as hundreds if not thousands of family photos and raw vacation video files or will it be dedicated strictly to the windows program on it? I am not "opposed" to installing windows directly on my Mac I am just more "comfortable" having the software on the external... this is my first post here and I LOVE my new MAC thank you all in advance!!!!
