Well, if you want to leave the drive as a single storage space that is compatible for both Windows and Mac OSX, then you should format the drive as FAT32 as this will allow the drive to be recognized by both OS. This will allow you to store files from both windows and Mac, although by doing this you run into a issue with file size limits as FAT32 can only support files of (correct me if I'm wrong) I believe 4 gb(?). You could also partition the drive into 3 storage spaces if you really wanted to and have one partition for Mac, one for PC's, and one as a FAT32 so that you can move files between both operating systems.
