[QUOTE="lightsguydave, post: 645981, member: 44825"] This is because HFS is the Mac equivalent of NTFS or FAT32, it's a case of the how the hard drive files stuff (I think) which can affect access by windows PCs. My HFS external hard drive cannot be properly read by my PC, so that's probably your problem. the good news is, you can reformat your external HDD to NTFS or FAT32 and ti will not affect the performance of your HDD on your mac, except if you wanna run certain drive utility functions. Hope I helped ^^ Dave [/QUOTE]
