[QUOTE="mac57, post: 309390, member: 17052"] I hate to suggest this, but what format is that drive in? Could you use a ...gasp... Windows box to read the files off and save them? If the drive is HFS+ (the native Mac OS X format) you can still use Windows, but you will need a commercial package like MacDrive ([url]http://www.mediafour.com/products/macdrive6[/url]) to allow your PC to read it. If this isn't an option, I am close to out of ideas, other than suggesting that you try the drive on another Mac. Alternately of course, if you have access to a Linux box somewhere, you can plug the drive in and read the files off from there. No matter what, I suspect that you may need the aid of another computer to finish this task. [/QUOTE]
