Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler Mac/PC question for the IT crowd

if you are looking to get the data from your Dell to the macbook. The best way possible is to take a screwdriver and remove the hard disk from the dell.

now, you have to look at the hard connector as 2004, they were most likely still using the older IDE drives and not the newer SATA that is the standard.

Go to your local computer store and pick up a USB2 to IDE external 3 1/2" case and put the hard drive inside of it. Plug it into your mac and simply copy all the data that you want off the drive.
