PC to Mac file conversion
My PC is dead. Bought new MacBook Air. Attached disk drive from my old PC. How can I read my files and get them into a format where they can be used on my Mac ? Primarily interested in my MS Office files.

You don't need to convert the format. Office is office, regardless of the platform. The data files are the same.
As for reading the drive, if you have an M1 based Mac, it can not read an NTFS formatted disk. You'll have to connect the drive to a PC and transfer the files to another disk formatted as FAT32.
Thanks Tim,
I'll do the file transfers on a buddy's PC.
Had a Mac, years ago. Back then, Apple used a bifurcated file that PC's couldn't read. I guess that must have changed over the years.
