1. You can read, but not write, the mac partition in windows. It works the same in mac os: you can read the windows partition, but not write to it. 2. I use Carbonite, but my understanding is that you can't back up both as they are different partitions. You could pay $99 per year to back up your primary drive and a backup drive (your other partition) but the basic, $59/year package allows only one drive to be backed up. You can call carbonite (1-877-2225488) and check with them. As to accessibility, the site works, and the client works well enough on Windows (you may need the jaws cursor though). I don't know about the mac client as I have not yet tried it. On Aug 10, 2012, at 1:51 PM, "Paul Hunt" <[email protected]> wrote:
