[QUOTE="investor, post: 1417010, member: 209683"] I have some questions regarding different file system (NTFS, FAT and HFS Plus) backup and share between them. I need to have windows 7 installed in bootcamp, because of some not osx ready software. I also need to share alot of files between windows systems that probably use NTFS to OS X and vice versa. 1. Should I install Windows 7 in Bootcamp with FAT32 (because I understand it can be read and written to by OS X) ? What are the options? What is the backside with having FAT32? Are there any 3party programs to use to read and write this file system? 2. How do I write to memory sticks from OS X that is formated in NTFS (lots of work memory sticks are in this file system) ? And the last side question.. 3. When I install windows 7 its on another partition from book camp.. (NTFS or FAT32). On OS X I will use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a image of the disk. How should I go about to make a image of the windows 7 file system on the mac? Can I use the same program or do I need another software like acronis? How do you guys do this? Thanks for any comments or suggestions. File systems is not my cup of tea. [/QUOTE]
