Mac + Win with one drive
Hey all
I know its possible to use just one FW drive and go back and forth bewteen Mac and PC (i do regular backups ... so no finger wagging ) . I have tryed to format my FW drive a Fat32 but when I go to the Workspace (on the Mac) and try to set it as a record drive I get the "not a recordable audio drive" message. What am I doing wrong here? or does anyone have a step by step? I know I'll need Macdrive on the PCs and thats ok. Currently I'm using whats listed in my sig. FW drive is an OWC 911 case with Western Digital 120gig/8mb. thanks the 'slide

Re: Mac + Win with one drive
You can't use a non-native formatted drive on either platform for recording or playback - only for transfer.
I prefer formatting the drives as HFS and using MacDrive5 from MediaFour under XP to support reading the Mac formatted drive. Rail
