Burgold Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I have a client that I need to transfer some data to. For some reason, she's alergic to CD's, DVD's, thumb drives, or flash cards and insists that I dump everything onto an external hard drive. Yes, she's one of those clients. I've told her that my PC may have trouble reading and talking to her Mac External HD, but of course she knows better. She gave me the drive and surprise, surprise none of my computers will acknowledge it. Worse, she told me that the sucker already has some data on it and so I can't just reformat the thing to a format that should be able to talk to both. Are there any solutions? Does anyone know of a way to get my computer to talk with her hard drive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enter Apotheosis Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Give her a thumb drive with the data on it. Don't accommodate people's unreasonable requests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokerPacker Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I'm guessing it's probably formatted to HFS+. Linux should be able to communicate with it fine, and Windows should be able to work with it if you get a driver to handle it. I read HFSExplorer should do the trick. http://www.catacombae.org/hfsx.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
