Note: On NTFS formatted hard drives can only be written under Windows
XP / Vista. Under MacOSX data can only be read.
The example above is a good solution for Windows XP / Vista users who sometimes
exchange data with Macs.
For storing the data under Windows XP / Vista both partitions can be used. As the NTFS
file system can only be read by Mac data to be used on these operating systems must
be stored on the FAT32 partition.
