[QUOTE="Jones!, post: 114990"] Hi guys.... Well on my current PC laptop, all of my files etc are stored on an external Western Digital Hard Drive, which itself is compatible with Macs also. Is it possible to simply unplug it from my laptop and plug it in to my shiney new Mac and transfer the files across or will it have to be reformatted when it is plugged into my Mac?? Therefore, if reformatting is the case, whats the best way to transfer files from my pc to mac without having to buy software. If both my computers are on a network, can I do it this way and will the files work? Files are office files (I will have MS Office for Mac) and also holiday pictures etc. Cheers people, Jones! :D [/QUOTE]
