[QUOTE="mac57, post: 364462, member: 17052"] You might want to consider using HFS+ on that drive. It fully supports Mac OS X's concept of owner IDs and permissions, making your data safer from malware. It also is journalled, meaning that it is more resilient to corruption overall, and faster recovering from any that does occur. If you need to share the drive with a PC, you can add MacDrive ([url]http://www.mediafour.com/products/macdrive[/url]) or its ilk to the PC and then it can read/write it too. Is this an option?
