When using the PC3000 - how do you handle drives when the destination drive (for recovered data) is HFS?

Do you format a drive in HFS and attach it to your Windows system and then use this drive as the destination?

For some reason, when extracting data from a Windows system to a HFS destination drive - there always seems
to be error messages from PC3000.

Any workarounds to this?

Are you saying cloning/imaging?
If you extract to a full erased destination hdd there's no HFS or NTFS. It's blank.
The destination will take the system that the source have.

No, not imaging.

I'm talking about PC3000 Data Extractor.

you probably need a third party driver for HFS volume to be mounted in windows e.g paragon HFS driver or similar. with free utility you can still mount a HFS volume in windows but read only.

You can use MacDrive for this, that's what I do. But be warned, that it gets annoying because it tries to lock volumes it thinks are Mac formatted from being modified by Windows disk management (which occasionally causes destination write errors when you are cloning).

But it does work.

Or you can just clone the whole drive, then do the logical work on a hackintosh machine.
