Andrey, Just faced with this problem myself. Ended up buying a program from Software Architects called Formatter 5. They have a Mac PC Manager init which will allow you to mount a PC formatted SCSI drive (hard drive, Syquest, MO, etc.) on a Mac. As far as I could find out, this is the only program which will allow you to mount a PC hard drive. Every other translation software seems to work only with removable media. I use it pretty often now and it works great, except for a bug which prohibits the software from recognizing more than 3 fdisk-formatted partitions. They're workin on it, though. I find it EXTREMELY convenient for transferring hundreds of megs of files. BTW, it costs about $180 if you buy it direct. Alan
