DD has plenty of space, with MAC PC ... that is to say, it is recognized by one without having to format it if it was previously connected to the other system. It can be recognized by both at the start, but the beginning imposes more on the same system, unless formatting. When we described the original product, the manufacturer not knowing what destination (s) system each customer the reserve, also said that it is compatible with MAC and PC in this case? DD because some are really supported by one of the two systems. I do not know what expression distinguishes the two situations ... if other comments can enlighten me .... Anyway, the first situation (that encountered here) is much more comfortable.
