Interoperability and FAT32
You need to install the latest service packs for windows 2000 then you can very large hard drive partitions (greater than 30GB).
Interoperability and FAT32 and firewire problems.
This is simply not true. Windows 2000 and Windows XP won't let you format a drive using FAT 32 if it's larger than 30gigs because Microsoft wants you to use NTFS. If you format the drive using Windows 98 or even a Windows 2000/XP installation cd, your Windows 2000/XP will read the drive just fine. Microsoft decided to implement this arbitrary limit to try to get people to migrate to NTFS to make it harder for people to leave windows, and to mitigate problems with FAT32.
Interoperability and FAT32 and firewire problems.
Hmm.. Thanks for the insight! This could be just the thing I'm looking for.. I was unable to see my roomate's 40 GB under Target Disk Mode under 10.1 (he's running 9.2.1) but could see his 6 GB drive just fine..
Now, the thing is.. he was told that his 40 GB is a SCSI drive, and after some searching on apple's site and xlr8yourmac.com, I found that TDM doesn't support SCSI (yet). The real issue here is that when I opened his mac to look at the drive, it doesn't sat SCSI on it at all, and seems to use the built-in IDE and power cords that are part of the default G4. It wouldn't be a problem if I didn't have both my IDE and power plug taken up by my two drives, both of which need to access his 40 GB... Any help would be appreciated! Thanks. |
