I have a mac but will use the external hard drive on both playstation, xbox, windows and mac...

So should i get the 'mac one' or the normal one?

Cheers for the advice...

A normal HDD is fine. Might need reformatting for use on the Xbox mind.

Iirc just format a normal one on a windows machine and it'll be reet to work with everything.

A hot stuff, sorry, Pettsi says.

I have one that works on my 360, Mac and PC.

I had to reformat mine to use on the Xbox as mine was using NTFS.

If your planning on using it with all of those then I'm pretty sure you'll need to put a partition in it so you can use both FAT32 and NTFS?

Windows is NTFS and Mac FAT32 IIRC?

Yeah but why is there 2 one for mac and one for pc?
