The MacMost Question and Answer Forum is a place where you can ask how-to questions about your Mac, iPhone, iPad and other Apple products. MacMost specializes in tutorials, tips and techniques of the “how-to” variety, as opposed to “fix-it” questions that are more about something not working as expected.1/2/11
I have a little question regarding the USB 3.0, is there any way to use the external HDD USB 3.0 with iMac or Macbook Pro computers?
Thanks in advance for taking time to reply since I think it’s an important issue for so many Apple products users.
