yeah, but $50 for it. I think not. I'll just keep on transfering files via my usb flash card reader. The reader works perfectly on the mac and xp.

It works as advertised, but it is $50 so make sure that it meets your needs before buying it. They have a trial, so download it and see.
macdrive doesn't seem to want to backup my itunes library from my xp desktop to my mac formatted hd.
... maybe the size has something to do with it? 45 gigs? ....

It has nothing to do with the size. I was backing up a 60GB library with no issues at all.
What kind of errors are you getting? What is happening?

when i drap a bunch of folders with the songs in them from my windows/xp machine to a mac formatted external hd strange things happen.
-at first only a moderate amount of folders will copy. too many and simply, nothing happens.
-after that small batch of copied folders is finished, i try to copy more, but only a smaller size batch of folders will copy. eventually nothing will copy to the external hd's folder.
it's happened before to me. i thought it was a phenemoena (sp) of fat 32 and large file sizes....

i recently formatted my external to hfs+ and installed macdrive on my PC. Now everything works great. I can read/write from both my mac and PC to my external hard drive.
