Hey guys hope this in the right forum. Anyways, my mac pro has 4 hard drives, two in raid, 1 for backup that has osx installed, and 1 with vista installed. My question is, can i partition my backup hard drive so that osx is running on 1 partition and use the other partition as fat32 so that osx and vista can both read and right to it. If so, will it hopefully show up in vista under "My Computer" as another drive? Any info would be helpful...thanks
