In previous versions of Pro Tools, Mac-
formatted HFS+ drives could only be used
as Transfer volumes when connected to
Windows XP systems using MacDrive.
When using either the Digidesign HFS+ Disk
Support option or MacDrive for recording and
playback on a Windows system, the session file
and all audio files must be stored on Mac-for-
matted (HFS+) drives. Recording and playback
of a session from a mixture of Windows- and
Mac-formatted drives is not supported.
For information on using the Digidesign
HFS+ Disk Support option, see the Mac
HFS+ Disk Support Option Guide.
