Title: Works with Mac's. . . kind of.
Product review: I purchased the 160 GB model about a week ago for my G5 Imac. When I received it, I noticed a sticker on the outside of the box saying that it was formated for Windows. "Oh, well" I thought, the description said that it was good for Mac and Windows, so I figured I would be fine. Big mistake! My Imac didn't recognize the drive and I needed a software patch from Smartdisk, but I had to go to another Mac with an older operation system than what was on my G5. Then, once that software patch was saved onto my new hard drive, I still had to reformat the drive to work on an Apple. Confused?! So was I! I couldn't figure out on Amazon's website how to buy one formated for Mac instead of Windows. Now that I'm hooked up, everything is totally cool and I love it.
