Generally hooking a Unix disk up to a Windows machine won't work. &nbsp;Microsoft does not support foreign filesystem formats. &nbsp;Typically, you should use tar to archive the filesystem on the Unix machine, then transfer the archive to a Windows machine using FTP.<br />

Oh, and since you have never used Unix or Linux, I strongly suggest you get someone who is familiar with the systems to help you.<br />

Ive never used Unix or Linux, but I was given a task to try to ghost all data from older(Mid 90s) Unix Machines to an IDE drive in NTFS format.What we are trying to do is to be able to hook a SCSI UNIX drive to a windows PC and pull the data that way instead of using a network. I dont know if this possible, but any help is appreciated

Get Data from a Unix Machine to a Windows PC

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
