portable hard drive mac format image
Freck1e
i want to back up or copy files from my mac and take them to the office and work on them using a pc. I have a portable hard drive but as its formatted for mac, the pc does not see it. I want to buy another port hd - what type do I buy - help very much appreciated.
Answer
Western digital is a very good hard drive brand for externals.
If i were you, i would format the hard drive for the pc. Mac recognizes both mac and pc so you should be fine. if it is formatted as a mac, you won't be able to see it.

If I plugged a portable hard drive from western digital into my mac, will it be available on PCs as well?

If I plugged a portable hard drive from western digital into my mac, will it be available on PCs as well? I didn't reformat anything, I just put it into the USB port. It didn't even ask if I wanted to do anything of the sort.
Answer
