[QUOTE="MacPastor, post: 1554430, member: 206487"] One more thing you can do, at least it's what I did, was to plug the drive into your Mac. Create a desktop folder on your Mac. Since the Mac can read the drive in it's current format, just drag all material from your drive into your desktop shortcut folder. This will take a while depending on how much stuff you have. Once the data is copied and confirmed to be on your Mac, then reformat the external drive to the Mac format (OS Extended Journaled I think) and then once it's Mac formatted, then just copy all the stuff back over to the external drive. Takes a while, but it's pretty simple and won't cost you anything extra. [/QUOTE]
