I'm trying to reinstall a new hd on to my mac and I'm having no luck. I have a Dual 2.5 PowerPC G5 and running OS X V10. The drive I'm trying to install is a WD Caviar Green Sata 500. I've placed the drive into my mac plugged in the cables and tried booting from the start-up disk and nothing, just the finder icon. The drive I had in there previously was a ATA (the original drive). Do I need to install a something to work with the SATA drive?
I'm not too educated with the internal components on the mac, but I have installed drives before... just never a new hd. Can anybody help me possibly?
thanks!
