On my five-year-old Macs, 500 GB drives are more-or-less standard. On my recent Intel Hacks, 1000 GB drives are standard. I generally buy when the price per megabyte is below the current "sweet spot". Today, I would buy if the price is $0.11, $0.12 or $0.13, but not higher. I tend to buy only SATA drives, and my G4 Macs are fitted with Mac- compatible iSATA/eSATA cards. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
