There's nothing wrong with the original drive I have, it's just gotten
cramped (which I never thought would happen). Any recommendations? The
easier the new one is to install the happier I'll be, not having done
anything inside the case beyond installing memory, an ethernet card, and a
G3. Simple is good. This is new territory for me, obviously. Any
thoughts/recommendations welcome (and I hope I'm not being too tedious).
Bill, the C-series has an IDE bus that is limited to one (1) device. Some folks have used the IDE connector to have a CD-R/RW drive or probably even a Superdrive but since it is an HD you want to change I can vouch for the simplicity of the task. The job basically consists of loosening the screws holding the drive in place and unplugging the 4-wire power plug and the IDE cable itself. Basic remove/replace. 20-30 minutes start to finish.
