Hi Jonathan,

If you upgrade the drive on your 1400 to something larger than four
gigabytes, do not connect the 1400 to your G4 in SCSI Disk Mode (aka HD
Target Mode). Pre-G3 Powerbook models have a hardware ROM bug which can
cause loss of data when using a drive larger than 4 GB in this mode., so
stick with ethernet.

Thanks for the tip. I just upgraded my 1400c with a 10 gig drive and never heard of this problem.
