Well that’s exactly what Paragon Software’s NTFS for Mac OS X and HFS+ for Windows provides you with.
So which should you choose? Well, what if you didn’t need to choose and can use both HFS+ and NTFS on either your Mac and Windows machines! Wouldn’t that be awesome? By default, the Mac can only read NTFS disks and Windows obviously could not even load an HFS+ formatted disk.Īnd you definitely do not want to use FAT filesystems on a 500GB portable hard disk. If you use both Mac and Windows, deciding on which file system to format your portable hard disk can sometimes be tricky.
