![]() You can do this using Apples Disk Utility if you have installed either Tuxera NTFS or NTFS 3G. The solution is a little bit tricky, needs either a virtual Windows machine or a real one and it involves removing and refitting your hard drive, but on an older MacBook Pro like 2009s that originally came with an Optical Drive there is no other way. The HDD is installed in the former optical drive bay, with one MacOS Ext partition for Mac storage and the other one being NTFS with Windows. I have Mac Os:X Mavericks working from my SSD (which I fitted to the HDD bay for increased speed) The good thing is, that you don't need the Bootcamp Assistant for installing Windows. Because it needs the optical drive for installing Windows and it won't accept it via USB. This is awesome big and quick storage, but you can't use it for BootCamp anymore, BootCamp Assistant says. Obviously I had to remove the DVD SuperDrive to fit in the HDD into the Optical Bay. I have a MacBook Pro mid 2009 fitted with both an HDD and SSD.
