I need to get my daughter a backup drive for her Macbook Pro. She's in college, and only backs up current assignments to a USB stick.
Now, despite my 270 Best Answers in the Storage category, I know nothing about what formats an Apple machine can recognize. How does the drive have to be formatted for use on the Mac? Is there a common format that can be shared by Mac and PC?
And does the Mac have good built-in software to backup all her user files or do I need to get some application, or something that comes with the drive?
