I ran into major compatibility problems, could only read NTFS-files but not write to a NTFS disk, my PeeCee-friend couldn't read a HFS(+) disk. I formatted the external as UFS but that wasn't readable on the PeeCee either ...

Formatting the external as MS-DOS....which doesn't require installing new FS types on any machine.
