Hi David,
I should have said GPT partition with HFS+ format.
I am basically looking for a shared format that will
accommodate large file transfers.
And OSx doesn't support NTFS write. The fuse is a paid
service and I would not want to install it on every Apple
I see, even if there is a 14 day trial. NTFS-3G is supported,
but I can't find a download for MAC for my life. (They point
you to the paid version.)
I don't have an Apple either. Apple does not allow you to
use a virtual machine of OSx, unless the base system is
Apple hardware (not going to happen).
I am seeing a lot more Apple computers out there since
the advent of Frankenstein and Sons (Windows 8 and Nein,
oops, 10). I personally find OSx to be excruciatingly weird,
but I need to eat, so I will work on anything folks are willing
to pay for. (I make a lot of money off M$'s endless quality,
security, and reliability issues.)
I prefer to work on Linux, but most of my customer's are small
business and they need their Windows to run their apps.
I have a few Linux server and workstations out there.
And, my shop is Linux. (I just don't have the patience to
fight with Windows on my own system after fighting with
it all day on my customer's machines.)

Have you considered SAMBA? With modern gigabit networking that's not a huge
speed penalty over sneakernet with disks.
