80 or 30GB ipod
Right now I have about 2/3 of my music on my laptop and it is taking up 7.83GB and it will continue to grow. These are at a pawn shop and they are the only two available there. I am leaning toward the 80 because of the idea that I can use it for extra space if necessary, but will I ever use the extra. So it's like $50.00 for an extra flash-drive. The 30GB is newer and so I guess my question should be is there any advantages, such as newer software on the 2007 iPod than on the 2005 iPod? I'm guessing that when either iPod is connected to my computer with the internet, then the they should update to the newest software.

Re: New 500G Firewire HD - folders or partitions?
Dan is correct. Multiple platter HDs' use segments of all disks for each partition simultaneously so the HD does'nt have to jump around to find files, and the dick readers run in parallel so to put mord data into the motherboard at one time. The main reason I mentioned using multiple partitions is not as much for mechanical failure, but also if the partition accidentally gets erased or moved by someone else, then you do'nt have to restore all of the files. Another idea I have is to install 2 HDs' in your computer if possible and designate one strictly for Virtual Memeory (I have only tried this on a PC. I'm not sure if Mac even still uses V.M..) and storage for non interactive files like photos', or media files', or pdf for example with multiple partitions if you want. Then designate the other H.D. for the OS and interactive programs. This is to allow the Virtual Memory and the OS to work simultaniously without making one HD jump all over the place. It improves performance immensely.

Look in System Profiler for Revision: to get the firmware version. Patchburn for your particular OS X, takes care of the external drive recognition. This might be more than you're willing to ingest, but I thought I'd share it just the same. In my PCI Graphics G4 Yikes!, I only had an internal CD RW, and wanted to playback DVD files from my harddrive, and as you discovered, you cannot open DVD Player unless it finds an internal DVD R or R/W ... so I went through the process of hacking the DVDPlayback file as follows (I'm looking for the original www link, but can't find it off hand). I later found it more efficient, to simply install a DVD RW, and didn't need this hack: I hacked the DVDPlayback file using CoryM's suggestions for 10.4.10, but it seems to work under 10.4.11. The first numbers needing replacement, may be offset by 1 ... (I'm not real adept at counting in Hex) ... Suggested for 10.4.10: /System/Library/Frameworks/DVDPlayback.framework/Versions/A/DVDPlayback and the changes are: Offset 674A8: 4082 0020 80A1 0040 3860 7CA4 F430 to 4082 0020 38A0 3860 7CA4 F430 Offset 9E2C8: 4E80 0020 7C48 02A6 429F 0005 BE01 FFC0 7FE8 02A6 to 4E80 0020 3860 4E80 0020 BE01 FFC0 7FE8 02A6 I used Hex Fiend:http://ridiculousfish.com/hexfiend/ as my Hex Editor (Fiendishly fast). Did have to realize the Hex address in the left column was always the 0th location, then I had to count 1, 2, 3, ..., A, B, C ... etc to the right to find numbers like 674A8 (that's about 8 over from 674A0). Changing the Permissions for the .../A folder and DVDPlayback files using Get Info was essential, as was having a backup copy of DVDPlayback (all work done on the Desktop). When it was time to replace the DVDPlayback file, I found it convenient to move the one in the A folder to the Trash, then copy the modified one into the A folder, and then returning Permissions back to the system for both the A folder and DVDPlayback file. A Restart made the new DVDPlayback file active, and I could then also empty the Trash. Now if I could just turn off Deinterlacing, DVD Player might be smoother ...

At least without downloading a sound editor or other recording software. Audacity comes to mind as adequate and free. Not sure how Windows got that over OS X, but they have always included a simple sound recorder app. HTH Just a message from Doug... 1st Hack: GA-945GCMX-S2 - E4500 CPU (2.2 Ghz) - 2 Gb RAM - 7200 GS (256 Mb) 2nd Hack: GA-P35-DS3L (V2) - E8400 CPU (3.0 Ghz -45nm) - 4 Gb RAM - 7200 GS (256 Mb) 3rd Hack: MSI Wind Desktop PC - 945GC - Intel Atom 1.6 Ghz CPU - 2 Gb RAM Hack in waiting: GA-945GCMX-S2 - Celeron D (3.06 Ghz) - 1 Gb RAM --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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.

Re: Installing PC3200 Ram into a PC2700 Dual 1Gb G4
It would be a benefit if say your computer only accepted 512MB and you put two 512s' in it rather than one 512 or two 256s'. The reason being is that one 512 will run larger programs but with only 1 slot to transfer data. two 256s' will use both slots but may separate some larger programs when transferring data. Two 512s' may only run 512MB of data, but it will give you the versatility to load both larger and smaller programs with with both slots. This is from my own experiance.

However, my manual states that this model uses PC2700 RAM and that the maximum size module available is 512Mb. Anybody have experience with this upgrade method? Will it work on this machine or will it fry my Mac? Would appreciate any advice. It certainly won't fry your Mac, as PC3200 is backwards compatible with PC2700. However, it is likely that the 1GB stick will only be seen by the system as 512MB, which is still great as it's a freebie, and if you've got an open slot to fill. ... and let us know if it *does* see it as more than 512mb !!
