I'm currently on a PC and want to move my files to my MBP which is coming next week. I have a HP external hard drive which came with my computer and I have all my stuff on there. I heard that to use it on a Mac I have to reformat it which means I'll lose all the files.
Is there a way I can use it to move my stuff or would I be better off burning everything to loads of DVDs?
Also my current external hard drive is 160gb, the same as my MBP. I want to buy the Western Digital Mybook 500gb one. Is the situation the same if I add all my PC files on it and then transfer them? I'll be getting one anyway so I'm hoping its a good one.
