[QUOTE="koerihn, post: 399740, member: 31592"] Hi, i am new to this forums, I am using a mac mini in the office and having the same problem. Well it seems most of the portable HDD are formated in ntfs... and to have it in fat32, file transfer will be slower if the files are large. Thumb drives are usually in fat32 so it won't be a problem. Is there a posiblity for some other alternatives other than to format the external HDD? Simply resolving to formating to fat32 isn't an easy task for most people. [/QUOTE]
