[QUOTE="zuperzz, post: 1026064, member: 145240"] Hi Everyone, I recently purchased a second external hard drive (1.5 tb caviar green) and would like to use it to archive media as well as a time machine drive. I was wondering, is it possible to partition and format the drive so that the majority of the drive can be used as storage space in NTFS format (so it can be accessible by windows) and then use another format for a 250gb time machine partition. And if so, how might this be done? I would appreciate any help I could get. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
