Data-sharing between Windows and
Macintosh systems
Seagate does not recommend that you use your
external hard drive to share data between Windows
and Macintosh operating systems. This is primarily due
to all of the variables in OS types and versions, formats
and partitions, interfaces, and third-party connectivity
software packages. If you absolutely must use your
external hard drive to share data between Windows
and Macintosh systems, initialise your drive (before you
use it!) for a Macintosh OS, as described below, and
then purchase and install – on your Windows system –
available third-party software that allows your Windows
system to read from and write to a drive that is formatted
for a Mac OS.
Also, for dual-interface kits, the two IEEE 1394a
(FireWire) ports are designed for daisy-chaining
IEEE 1394a (FireWire) devices, not for connecting
two computers to the drive at the same time.
Caution: Do not leave your drive in its pre-formatted FAT32, single
partition condition if you intend to transfer data between Mac and
Windows systems. Doing so will result in data loss.
