I have recieved an external harddrive. How can I use it between my pc and mac simultaneously? [duplicate] I just received a Seagate 1TB external hard drive. I'd like to be able to use it on both my mac and pc simultaneously. I realize that they use different disk formats (my Windows machine uses NTFS, while I'm not sure what a mac uses). How can I make this a reality?

"If I'm not mistaken, Mac OS can read from NTFS partitions, although it can't write there. Therefore, if this wouldn't be a problem, just go for NTFS and you'll be happy. If read-only is not enought, use MacFuse which allows you to also write to NTFS file system.

I'm not a Mac user, never tried this, but anyway, I hope it helps."

Either a NAS like ChrisF said, or mount it on your Windows machine, share it and then connect to it from your Mac.
