Post: External HDD .... ntfs or fat32
03-29-2011, 03:40 AM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I just bought an external hdd and have yet to hook it up.. I don't have access to a computer at the moment, so I can't format it to fat32.. Is there anyway to use it for my backups, without having to move them back to my internal to play them.. I read that you can only play backups from external hdd that are formatted to fat32 ... Is this true, and if so, how can i format my external hdd to fat32 without my computer ??? I will get my computer back Friday..

The latest Multiman supports NTFS.

I know that, and i have it installed ... I just read somewhere that it cant run the games off of it, it just can copy them and store them... If i wanted to play them i would still need to copy them to my internal hdd.. I don't want to do that, i would like to play them off the external hdd ... Can the new multiMAN do that??
