[QUOTE="mmoy, post: 114997, member: 9872"] Is this USB 2.0 or Firewire? If so, you should just be able to plug it in to the Mac. I've done this myself with my external drives (I have two enclosures and three drives). I did have a problem where one very large directory wasn't seen by the Mac. The name of the directory was netscape so I don't think that the name was a problem but the directory contained well over a GB of files. I just created a new directory and copied the files that I needed to that directory and the Mac saw it when I plugged it back in. I suppose that you could do it using an FTP client as well. But I have all of my machines firewalled off on the home network (don't want any Windows viruses to jump from one machine to another). [/QUOTE]
