Hey everyone,
I hope this is the right forum for this thread if not please feel free to move it of course. Anyways, other than my iPod and iPhone, I am a PC guy. So I know little to nothing about MAC computers so I need a little help picking out an external HDD. My sister just bought a brand new MAC Book Pro and it has the new Lion operating system on it. I decided I'd get her an external HDD for her as a going away gift so she could keep her multimedia on it, back-up her internal HDD, etc.
Anyways, I'd like to get her a 1TB external HDD. No more than $100 shipped. However, every single one I've looked at so far only says they are compatible with MAC OS X Tiger or Leopard. I am sure that they will more than likely still work fine with Lion but I just want to be sure before I buy it and send it to her. I also know it more than likely the details page on Newegg for the ones I have looked at haven't been updated in quite sometime because they also said compatible with Windows XP/Vista. Although, I just want to be sure.
So if someone could confirm that or maybe give me a couple of suggestions it'd be really appreciated.
Thanks.
