Can this be used for multiple computers? null

Sure. You may either partition the drive into volumes dedicated to specific formats (ie, HFS+ for Mac, NTFS for Windows, ext4 for Linux) OR you may just format the drive as MS-DOS (FAT32 or exFAT) and use it with all three systems. Note that certain naming limitations may exist (certain characters not permitted and length of name) but that's easily worked around.

Hi, Please be informed that the WD Easystore drive is a plug and play device. It will serve your purpose of storing and transferring the data from PCs to the drive and drive to PCs. Need Help? Please see our "'Contact Us" page for information.
