Rocketfish™ - 2-Port USB 3.0 PCI Express Interface Card - Multi

What's great about it: Good price - No hurdles with OS
What's not so great: Its does not have the through put - pipeline for Video Editing
All USB 3 cards are not created equal - to keep it simple some can handle a fire hose amount of data and some can handle a garden hose amount of data. This one is a garden hose. Great price - good for backup drives so i am a happy camper for that use
I would recommend this to a friend!

Your Mac natively reads and writes to a format called "Journaling"
PC natively reads and writes to a format call "NTFS"
I think that drive is natively NTFS so your mac will not recognize it.
CAUTION:
There is a format they both read and write. BUT if you format your drive to that, NOW, you will lose what ever data is on the drive NOW. So if you go forward and want to make a drive they both can operate on (BACK UP YOUR DATA FIRST) on ANOTHER DRIVE then reformat your new one to a FAT32 format or EXFAT. They both will read and write to these. Link below to understand differences in FAT32 vs EXFAT
