Hi Folks,
I am new to this board and would appreciate some expert advice. I have two computers and one USB external hard drive 250 gig. I want to partition it in half and back up my PC complete with O/S (XP Pro) on one half and my Mac G5 (10.4) complete with O/S on the other. Then I want to use it to back up both systems on a regular basis. Is this possible? Is it advisable?
I partitioned it on MAC for PC and can't seem to reformat one half only for the MAC.

PC= Dell Dimension 8400 3.2 2 gig ram 250 gig hd
MAC= G5 PowerMac dual 2.0 w 2.5 gig ram 160 gig hd

Thanks in advance,
John
