superman1995 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 I currently have 2 SSDs with my os and basic programs installed. I had recently bought a new 3TB Hard Drive and I would like to be able to install the Hard Drive in a format that will allow both operating systems to be able to read and write data onto this hard disk. I know that both Windows and OSX use a different hard drive format and i was wondering which was the best format to format the disk to allow the read on both oses therefore allowing my documents and media to viewed and edited on both oses which saves the hassle of transferring the data and keeping 2 copies of them Thanks Superman1995 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/255932-sharing-hard-drive-between-oses/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
natasha123 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Format your drives to ntfs so windows can write to it use a program called "tuxera ntfs" This is what i use to read and write to ntfs hard drive with my mac.
