So my dudes macbook went to shit and asked me if I could save his music he mixed himself so I told him I'd give it a try. HD was already out so i plugged it in to my pc with this usb and power cables I got for internal HDs and it wouldn't show up. Tried to find it on management and it wouldn't load properly so I set the drive offline. Let us assume I am a huge fucking computer dumbass, what do I do?

He's a nice guy so i try not to rip on his tastes
>>59060133
I would but my pc doesn't recognize the drive anywhere. I tried going to computer management>storage>disk management but just lets me keep the drive offline and in read-only mode so I'm stuck at that

>>59060104
I assume you're using Windows. If the disk showed up on management that means it is being detected but can't read it. That's because Macs use the HBFS file system which Windows cannot read
Try this https://www.howtogeek.com/252111/how-to-read-a-mac-formatted-drive-on-a-windows-pc/

>>59060188
HFS, not HBFS
I have no idea where that B came from

>buying computers based on taste
He's got it coming for him.

Boot from some live distro to read HFS. LiveResqueCD has gparted and should be able to read practically any filesystem Linux has support for.
