I'm looking for advice for a friend who needs to read some data from an OSX guid formatted drive but only has a Windows running machine at present.
What app or whatever do you hack into the Windows machine to allow it to read the OSX guid HFS+ file system? (Note: would only need to read.)

Paragon HFS+ for Windows®
There's a way to do it with Apple drivers in Bootcamp extracted, and installed into Win 7 or 8, but I can't quite remember how to do it.

MacDrive. I've been using it for years.

Depends on if it is a one time thing or something that needs to happen regularly. If it is something that should happen regularly, MacDrive or Paragon's solution both works. If it is a one time extraction, it is probably easier to install HFSExplorer.
To install Apple's HFS driver, you first have extract it from Apple's installer on a Mac, copy it to the Windows machine and then do a little registry hacking. I can probably dig up the details, but try the other things frist.

The new Mac Pro has up to 30 MB of cache inside the processor itself. That's more than the HD in my first Mac. Somehow I'm still running out of space.

Thanks for all the replies!
And there's even a solution! (Thought I'd be telling him "Sorry, no way to do it.")
