Re: Mac External HDD

Essentially you lose the access controls (You lose one or two other things as well, but access control is the main one). If you think of HFS as being roughly the equivalent of NTFS, then going to FAT32 on a Mac is equivalent to going to FAT 32 on Windows. It's the lowest common demoninator!
