Hi to all,

I have a 3T myBook essential and I formated 3 partitians with my mac, one with mac Format, another with Win format and other to use with both.

My mac recognise all of them and can read/write in 2 of the 3 partitions as expected.

But now I’m trying to plug the WD to my netbook runing Win starter and it recognizes the device but I can’t access neither of the pertitions…

there’s anyway to use the wd as a harddrive for both OS without formating it again??

thanks in advance for the help

and best regards

Hi thanks for the Help…

Ok I see but if I reformat what program should I use to do what I need…

I what 3 partitions to put data from each OS and one of the partitions would be to share data…

So I should do this with Win or Mac?? and what formats should I use??

thanks a lot and best regards
