Colonel Ingus Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 It's been a while since we've done this, so we need you guys to refresh our memory We have a dell PC, and we want to transfer all of the pictures and music that are on the PC, over to a new Mac. We have a external hard drive enclosure that we're going to be using with the PC's hard drive. The PC hard drive will go into the enclosure, and then it will be hooked up via firewire to the Mac. Here's our question; Since the PC hard drive is not formatted in a Mac style, will we be able to see all of the pictures and music files on that PC drive? We don't need to start windows, just 'see' the files on the PC drive. Would it be easier if we partition the PC drive first, and then put everything that needs to be copied over to the Mac in that new partition? Thanks for your help with this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
