get an external hard drive enclosure, take out the drive from your PC and put it in there.

theres loads of different types, USB, Firewire eSata

just depends on the connection you have

they were about £15 last time i checked i think.

make sure you get the right one. normal internal PC drive is 3.5" laptop drive is 2.5"

best solution i can think of thats doesnt require major work

not a mac user so i dont know much, but from what i know theres only one format that can work on both is FAT32, which has a disk size limit of 2TB and a file limit of 4GB

id say format it as NTFS (it prob will be already if its windows) then use that paragons program i posted, no idea on the performance of it, but it should be alright
