Mac & PC HDD

[Dip]

I need a HDD to work with both Mac and PC. Its going to be the holder of my iTunes Library - so read and write on the Mac and Read on PC.

What format does the drive need to be in for this?

Do it for windows.

OS X can deal with windows formatting with no issues.

Windows will not even see your OS X formatted HDD and will want to format it.

yeah as said fat or ntfs should work fine with the mac

Hmm. Its in NTFS atm, won't allow for write, only read.

I just tried to format it to FAT32, but I don't have the option in My Computer...

Any ideas why?

On my HDD I have formatted half of it for mac and half of it for windows (FAT32). Did it in disk utility on my mac.
