[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1646180, member: 46727"] You can copy data from a NTFS formatted drive to a Mac but it may induce ownership and permissions problems. You just can't write to a NTFS formatted drive from a Mac without a special driver. Anyway, you're getting ahead of yourself. Why do you need an expensive Time Capsule? You can buy a 2 or 3 TB external hard drive for much less. [/QUOTE]
