Hey everyone! I'm a recent PC to Mac switcher. I bought my first Mac yesterday morning and am thrilled with it.
On my PC, I had an IEE (I think!) type hard drive with a large collection of photos and music, and I didn't want to spend the time tediously switching every file from my PC to my Mac. So I took out the hard drive with my music and pictures from my PC, and bought a hard drive case. Which was fantastic, until I realized that it didn't work on my PC or my Mac. Finally, I fiddled around with some jumper plugs on the hard drive, and the PC started to recognize it. The PC now works with it, but not the Mac.
I plugged it into the MBP, and went to Disk Utility.
The hard drive isn't mountable and it's telling me:
"Verifying volume disk1s1
Verify volume failed: Unrecognized Filesystem."
What does that mean? All that's on the disk are pictures and videos, I believe. If anything else is on there, should I just clean it off?
Thanks guys!
