Hello.
I replaced the dying hard drive on my iBook G4, reinstalled OS X and got updated back up to 10.4.11.
Now I'm using a Vantec SATA/IDE to USB 2.0 Adapter to try to see the old drive and drag/grop the User Folder and other misc applications.
The problem is... well, the iBook can't seem to see the old drive. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a particular order you have to plug things in with the adapter?
I hear the drive humming, but no real activity.
Thanks for sharing your wisdom.
