Hello all!
I just bought a Retina MacBook and have a few questions about the best way to convert my two external hard drives to use on my Mac. My old computer had a 60gb hard drive so I used one external hard drive (Toshiba 750gb) as my primary storage space and used a second (Passport 1tb) exclusively as backup. I have the 256gb retina so I wont be able to fit everything I have stored (about 650gb's worth) on it at once. I do have access to other computers (PCs) that I would be able to dump everything onto temporarily if need be.
Side note: the Toshiba external drive is corrupt but I plan to have someone attempt to fix it to save the small amount of data that I did not have a chance to back up to the Passport. If they cant fix it I would assume that I could just reformat it for Mac and then transfer everything to it from the Passport, then reformat the Passport and transfer everything back to it... right?
Any help would be appreciated!
