chirag1988 Posted November 16, 2016 Posted November 16, 2016 I'm looking for a free software to be able to use external hard drives between windows and my Macbook, without having to re-format them. Anyone recommend one? Quote

HaydnH Posted November 16, 2016 Posted November 16, 2016 You could just reformat the hard drive to exFAT and use it on Mac & Windows without the need for third party drivers. Quote

I've already got stuff on the hard drive - and also I'd encounter this issue with anyone else I wanted to transfer files to if they were on Windows Quote

Adrian@TORQEN Posted November 16, 2016 Posted November 16, 2016 You can read any NTFS partitions from MacOS, but you can't write it without NTFS enabler like the ones in my first reply. Quote
