Changing filesystem to Mac

hardman34, on Wednesday May 7, 2008 01:08:00 PM
Hello,


I am trying to add music files to my external hard drive. The problem is that the external hard drive used to be on my PC and is running on a Windows NT file system. I would like to change the file system so it will work with my Mac. Anyone know how to do this?
Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 6.0

Hello




Two options...
First is free and easy to do, but you'll lose all the data currently on the drive. Use Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities) to reformat the drive. If you are only going to use the drive with Macs, reformat as HFS+ (Journaled). If you need to use the drive with PCs, format it as FAT32.

Second option, buy a utility program like Paragon's NTFS for Mac OS X that lets OS X read/write to NTFS file systems.
