| 763409 | 2009-04-09 02:18:00 | Hi Guys If I have a dodgy hard drive from a MAC laptop, can I slave it to a PC to get at the data? |

| 763415 | 2009-04-09 03:45:00 | Macdrive is not great, you will have more success with Linux | Bantu (52) | ||
| 763416 | 2009-04-09 03:58:00 | I'll grab both and see what happens. Thanks guys |

| 763417 | 2009-04-10 02:01:00 | Right so MacDrive didn't work as the disk will not even register on the system. I am running the Puppy Linux but again the disk was not picked up as it loaded, is there anything I can do to get the disk to be seen? |
