Hey
I have a very large iTunes library which is in total 163 GB and growing (I'm so glad I bought the 160GB iPod when it was still available).
I currently have it on a 500GB external desktop hard drive that's formatted as MacOS Extended (Jornaled). Problem is I can't view hard drive with Windows
I've just purchased a portable 320GB hard drive. So now I have a few questions:
1- Can I move the library to the new hard drive and still keep user data such as song ratings, comments and date added?
2- What should I format the new hard drive as so I can use it with both Windows and Mac, with read and write access? The largest file in the library is an MP3 file of 3.05GB. Apparently some formats don't allow copying or writing of large files.
3- Can I use another computer, which is a Vista machine to manage the same library?
Thanks for any help in advance.
