My MacBook Pro replaced a HP laptop. I still used the HP to occasionally access an external drive attached to it that I used for backup and off-loading files. Now the HP motherboard has died and the repair cost is simply not practical.
My question relates to the compatibility of that external drive to my Mac. Something tells me I cannot just plug it into the Mac and access the files as I did with the HP. Is that correct or not? If correct, what would I need to do to make those files accessible on my Mac?
