Will seagate freeagent external drive Mac edition work on PC?

I just bought a 1 TB external Hard Drive on ebay, but i didn't realize it said it was the Mac edition, and i have a PC.. is it still going to work? Do I need to do something to convert it? or did I really screw up?? All answers will be appreciated

Hmm... I'm not too sure. Do you know what format the external hard drive is? Since it is the Mac edition, chances are that it may be Mac formatted. I'm a Mac user and I have a Mac formatted external HD myself. My PC doesn't recognize it at all. I don't think most PCs are able to read Mac formatted HDs.

There should be a way to change the format of the external HD. Though, I really don't have much of an idea how to do this. I think if you go to "My Computer," the external HD should be listed there. If you right click the drive and click on "Format," you'll get to choose from a few different options to reformat the external HD. I'm not sure if this works since I haven't tested it out. Try searching Google: "reformat external hard drive". Or, just ask about it here on Yahoo! Answers.

Also, I forgot to mention that I found a program called "HFS Explorer" for the PC. It allows PCs to read Mac formatted hard drives and disk images. And, its free. With the use of this program I was able to successfully move files to and from my Mac formatted external HD. Here is the link:

Sorry that I wasn't able to give you a definite answer. Hopefully, I have been able to help you out.

Fleetwood Mac (Deluxe Edition) $6.64 Given their monumental legacy, it's hard to imagine that the so-called "classic edition" of Fleetwood Mac essentially came together casually over chips and margaritas at an L.A. eatery; the then-obscure duo of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks (whose own mid-'70s debut album had initially gone almost straight to the cut-out bins) became the crucial axis of the legendary band without so much as a...

Tusk (Deluxe Edition) $8.77 If your personal turmoil and professional musical struggles suddenly yielded more success and money than you could ever imagine, what would you do? A lesser '70s rock band recorded Don't Look Back; Fleetwood Mac made Tusk. Whether it was a firm, middle-finger salute to the weighty commercial expectations foisted upon them in the wake of Rumours' burgeoning successes or a restless creative response...

Rumours (Deluxe Edition) $8.91 Three decades after Rumours established itself as one of rock's most ubiquitous, overarching successes, discussing Fleetwood Mac's heady 1977 monster (18 million sold and counting) might seem pointless; one might as well deconstruct a Big Mac. But this remastered, double-disc deluxe edition succeeds by offering up a generous, compelling portrait of that overly familiar musical triumph via 18 bonus...

The Original Kings of Comedy [VHS] $2.43 The Original Kings of Comedy achieves the seemingly impossible task of capturing the rollicking and sly comedy routines of stand-up and sitcom vets Steve Harvey, D.L. Hughley, Cedric the Entertainer, and Bernie Mac and the magic of experiencing a live concert show. Director Spike Lee and his crew plant a multitude of cameras in a packed stadium and onstage (as well as backstage, as they follow the...

The Last of the Mohicans (THX Widescreen Edition) [VHS] $12.98 Wildly romantic, daringly exciting, Michael Mann's film of James Fenimore Cooper's novel created a new babe magnet out of Daniel Day-Lewis, he of the heaving pecs and flowing mane. As Hawkeye, he plays an American settler raised by the Mohicans who is forced to serve as a guide for British adventurism in upstate New York. But the British have been outflanked by the French (and their Indian allies)...
