How do I format the external hard drive I just put together to run on Mac and PC's?

Not easily! PC's use FAT or NTFS, Macs use a different structure. You can't as far as I'm aware, dual boot.

You may be able to set up two partitions and format one as MAC and one as PC but you will not be able to share data. You can get a programfor the PC to read Mac disks. It's called TransMac
