This is a much-requested follow up to our original Windows 10/external drive tutorial posted back in 2017. Be sure to subscribe to 9to5Mac on YouTube for more handy tutorials like this. In this video walkthrough, I show you step-by-step how to deploy a Windows installation using Boot Camp drivers on an external drive connected to your Mac. With this in mind, setting up an external Windows drive on your Mac might prove to be handy. Considering that many Macs out there have relatively minuscule amounts of onboard storage, installing Boot Camp to run Windows isn’t always a feasible option. (I also feel better that I don't have all my eggs in one basket, so to speak.Traditional Boot Camp installations can take up a lot of storage space on your Mac. But that's just my workflow and YMMV, of course. For extending my OSX side, I have a second external drive formated HFS. copying a 20GB virtual machine from the Mac to an external NTFS drive) and then use the NTFS drive in either Boot Camp or on a PC.
I'm usually copying a large file to the NTFS drive from a HFS drive. But, I do NOT use those NTFS drives a lot on the Mac side. (Like I said, too complicated.) So instead, I use Tuxera NTFS so I can write to NTFS drives. And I've had one too many instances where I accidentally deleted the wrong partition. Not that partitions are bad, but I've found that it gets too complicated for the work I do. Me personally, I do NOT make multiple partitions on my external drives. (And FAT32 is probably not the most efficient for a 3TB drive.) You get file size limits with FAT32, so it depends on whether you can live with the limits or not.
The only way it can be "out of the box for both" is if it's formatted FAT32.
that will run on firewire 800 3tb that is ready to go "out of the box" for windows and OS X ? (Or if you install something like Paragon NTFS or Tuxera NTFS on the Mac side.)ĭo you know of a better drive. (Read-only.) If you only plan to use the drive with Windows, then yes, NTFS is an option.
