I have a revision 1 blue and white G3 with a 6gb ATA hard drive. I've heard things about problems with drive corruption with large ATA hard drives. I'd like a bigger hard drive, but I'm worried about the corruption. So I've got some questions and I hope someone knows something.
Is drive corruption still a problem with rev 1 B&W G3's under OSX?
How big an ATA hd before there gets to be a drive corruption problem?
Is the problem specific to particular brands of hd's?


I've got a SCSI card in it, but the price per gb of SCSI hard drives is ridiculous compared to ATA hard drives. With two video cards and a scsi card I'm down to my last PCI slot and I don't want to use it up with an ATA card.
