Yes. Just need to format it in a format thats appropriate for Windows. Like exFAT. There are some formats that will be read/write for both Mac/Window. These will be most versatile

This drive has a lot of computability problems, I would not try it on mac, most likely it will not work.

William...... My son and I recently purchased one of these drives for our MacMini. We have a small photography business (Armillaryinc.com) and are now using the drive as part of our normal processing and as an integral part of our backup strategy. We are very pleased with the device. Hope this helps! Best of luck.

If the question is whether the software on the drive is MAC compatible, the answer is NO. I have a Mac and I just use the device as a flash drive with my information in PDF files on the drive.

There is no reason why this drive would not work on any Mac running OSX 10.4 or higher. There are some OSX applications on the drive but I've never used them (I just deleted them) so I don't know if they'll run on 10.10. You don't need them to use the drive on your Mac.

I've never heard of any external hard drive NOT working on a PC... You might have to reformat, but HDs labeled for Macs should work in PCs (but NOT the other way around!).

I have it installed under Yosemite 10.10.3 on a 2009 Mac Pro. It has been working well so far with no additional drivers (or power). I tested the speeds using Black Magic with the same drive connected to the Mac's built-in USB 2.0 and then on the Inateck USB 3.0. The speed difference was quite dramatic under USB 3.0, although I have been using the external drive only for Time Machine backups, so it is not a big factor in real-world use.

We don't use any software and only use it as a dock. Had up to 6 TB drive work just fine on our Mac.

It is USB 2.0 standard compliant. It will take a SATA II/III or IDE drive. If you Mac has USB 2.0 standard ports, then, if your drive is SATA II/III or IDE, it will work.

Yes, yosemite has know issues with external drives. I had to set mine up all over to get it working. Remember to back up!!!

Yes. Your Mac will ask how you want to format the drive. You choose the format that works best in your environment.

The drive works on my Mac 10.10.1 without problem. I have yet to try uploading iomega files. Iomega likely will offer assistance if you have any problem with the upload. Suggest asking them.

I have about 6 floppy disks with pictures, must of been developed that way. Can I use this drive with a Mac? I no longer own a PC.

I have a late 2009 iMac i7 my internal drive for writing isn't functioning like it should. I borrowed a friends external rw dvd/cd drive by Apple and haven't had any difficulties. Writes perfectly fine. I'm not running Yosemite.

Haven't tried large files, do not own a MAC, but noticed it writes slower than my older USB 3.0 drives.

Frankly, I don't think it even can be said to "work" at all. Even if one accepts the terrible Windows software and the glllaaaciallll transfer speeds, mine up and spontaneously reset itself and *lost all saved data*. If you're already in the Mac ecosystem anyway, why look anywhere else than a Time Capsule? Designed from the get-go to work with the OS, integrates wonderfully and has fabulous (well, compared to Seagate) support (if you're near an Apple store).
