I have an external HD I use as my Time Machine. If I take my Time Machine and plug it into another PC or Mac, am I able to view the contents on the HD? Will it affect any of my data? Thanks in advance. BigBoy

A Win based machine - only if you have a 3rd party app that will allow windows to read HFS+ volumes No, just viewing the contents of the drive will not affect the data. I cannot be held responsible for the things that come out of my mouth. In the Windows world, most everything folks don't understand is called a virus. Place your vote for our Member of the Month |
