mrbonkers Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Installed SL 10A432 on my mbp and installed bootcamp 3.0 in windows 7. I am able to read HFS in windows 7 but not able to write. Is this what you guys are experiencing too? Or is it a feature that prevents viruses from infecting the HFS partition?

stepandr Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I remember reading somewhere that the 3.0 drivers were only to read HFS, not write. Personally I don't think this is much of a "feature" but I think the virus thing was the reason given.

CTJoyce Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 The whole "to protect you from viruses" thing is most likely a cover for "We couldn't get a stable read / write drive that didn't cause corruption on the HFS+ partition and thus didn't add it."
