My Powerbook G4 15" 1ghz A1046 is dead and in need of a new logic board and I was wondering if there is a way to remove the hard drive and install it into my G5 Tower? All I want to do is retrieve the data from the Powerbook drive. Thanks for your help and suggestions.

you are better off with an external ATA enclosure, since the power books used ATA drives, where a G5 tower use SATA drives - different interface
