Writing to Hard Drive

Hi, 

Can anyone confirm for me…?

Can you write to the Hard Drive from both NTFS and HFS+…? I’m assuming only one, without having to reformat the built in hard drive…?

However, once formatted, to say NTFS, can you plug in an external HFS+ and read from that?

Thanks

Neither.  The Hub’s hard drive is not accessible except via network connections, thus the format of the drive is irrelevent.

maybe he means … ?

“Can i plug an External HDD (formatted in NTFS or HFS+) into the USB ports on the hub and copy & move files from the External Drive onto the Live Hubs Internal Drive (which is NTFS)”

or

“If my PC has 1 NTFS formatted HDD and a HFS+ formatted HDD can i transfer files from both drives via a Network Connection to the Live Hubs Internal HDD” ?

the answer then, in both cases, would be Yes
