Does this drive work with MAC OS?

On the Mac, you can use Disk Utility to format this jump drive as a Mac OS USB drive or as a MS-DOS (FAT) formatted USB drive for Windows.

Wish I could help, I use these strictly to store embroidery designs. Sorry I can't be of any help...

Yes, it works perfectly with my Mac Air, so there should be no problem for other Macs...(though I needed a port extension because the drive needs two ports)I hope I helped!

It depends on the Mac OS Newer (Past 5 Years) OS will recognize NTFS Format

The box says it is compatible with both Mac OS X (10.5 or later) and Windows (Vista, 7, Server 2003, Server 2008). I don't have a way to test if I plug it in to a Mac to see if it just works from one to another. I have read, however, that you may be able to do this with any drive by installing certain programs on your Mac. http://forum.notebookreview.com/apple-mac-os-x/192574-copying-mac-files-pc-external-hard-drive.html

You should have no problem. My mac has USB 2.0 and this drive supports USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 natively. The only difference you will see is the data transfer speed, and honestly, even with USB 2.0 interface, the data transfer is pretty fast.

I think the question is does the drive come preformated for Mac or PC or do you have to format it for either OS and setup two partitions if you want to use it across platforms.

I honestly do not know if this drive is Mac compatible. It was such a waste of money and a piece of garbage it hardly even worked for PC. What I can tell you is this drive: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008AJLPYS/ref=oh_details_o02_s01_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 IS Mac Compatible and works awesome on PC and Mac and Linux. Its a bit more money, but it really is worth it. Dont even bother with the one for your question, its not worth 1$.

Yes. It's easy to setup since the drive operates independently from either Windows or Mac.

As an external drive, it should work with any Mac with a thunderbolt port. I use mine to hold a couple TBs worth of photos for work in Photoshop which is loaded on main hard drive. Performs fine for that. I have never done video work, however, but I think it should be fine.

Not sure, since I do not own a Mac computer. This question should be referred to the Seagate Customer Support.

I would say no since the latest drives I could find were for Power PC. It looks to be pretty dated drivers for the Mac.

Absolutely. I have a MBP and bought 3 of these drives, although one was a gift to my brother-in-law who has a macbook air. I have one formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled) for my own use, and one MS DOS for sharing files with none mac users. It's the best USB flash drive I've ever used.

I have this exact hard drive - purchased it this weekend. It needs to be formatted FAT 32. It works perfectly with my Mac and PC.

It really depends on the file format, Windows and Mac have never been known to play well together, so the answer is yes the drive will function on either system, but the files you wish to transfer may turn out to be the problem.

Not sure what your question is, but my drive failed repeatedly when I tried to copy the files from an old drive. I sent it back, got my refund, and bought a Seagate. I was using it with an old Mac OSX.

I am not sure but since everyone I know uses Mac and this external drive and many are on latest version of Mac, I would HIGHLY suspect that it will work just fine. This drive, with Time Machine, totally ROCKS. It is the best investment you could make.
