What are some functional differences between the Windows and the Mac versions of Transcend Elite? Category : Software / Firmware / Applications Note: 1. To have the external hard disk support both Windows and Mac operating systems, we recommend formatting the hard disk into FAT32 or exFAT format. 2. The disk lock/unlock function for MacOS version is still under evaluation. Is the answer helpful? Related If I use the Transcend Elite for Windows to encrypt files in my external hard drive, can I decrypt them when connecting the drive to a Mac? If the files you hope to back up contain those that are not allowed to be backed up, a warning message will pop up from Elite and the backup task will be interrupted. Why do I get a blue screen with an error message, "STOP 0x0000007B INACCESSABLE_BOOT_DEVICE," when installing Windows 7/8/10 OS using the SSD?
