Note: On with NTFS formatted hard disks can only be written only under
Windows 2000/XP.
The example above is a good solution for Windows 2000/XP users who sometimes
exchange data with Windows 98SE/ME PCs.
For storing the data under Windows 2000/XP both partitions can be used. As the NTFS
file system is not recognized by Windows 98SE/ME data to be used on these operating
systems must be stored on the FAT32 partition.
Please follow the steps below to adapt the Freecom Mobile Drive for your needs.
