Use MacDrive from Mediafour. http://mediafour.com/

It would be slower for your Mac to update songs because OS X has to read a non-native disk format. I've tried it. Copying between two Mac formatted hard drives is faster than copyi…

I'm guessing this is spam. And I'm sure I wasn't the first, but DLO makes a similar product which works great. J.

the DLO is a different product-i know about that one- this is the same type but this one fits all ipods, mini, mp3's ipod photo because of the adjustable arms on the side... And it…
