[QUOTE="WoodenBear, post: 1276882, member: 177935"] At the ADATA phone tech's recommendation, a few days ago I briefly installed NTFS-3G in an initial attempt to get my iMac to recognize the NH03 1.5tb drive, but when it didn't help I promptly uninstalled it. So that program was never used for any backups. I just checked my CH94 with Disk Utility, and it's formatted FAT32. Is there a different formatting I could try via Disk Utility for increased efficiency? I'm only using Macs, no PCs, so cross-platforming isn't a top priority. [/QUOTE]
