[QUOTE="Ragle, post: 43625, member: 5555"] I had this same concern when I switched to Mac last week from a PC. If the drive is formatted as NTFS, then the Mac will only be able to read from it, not write. If it is formatted FAT32, then both read and write are possible. I am still working on getting an enclosure for my drive to be able to use it as external. Once I do, I will most likely copy everything over to the Mac and re-format it to Mac's standard. [/QUOTE]
