I have a PowerMac G4 1.5mhz and just installed a 2nd hard drive. It's a 160GB HD but the computer just recognizes it as a 128Gb.
I read that I need an ATA card to make it work but I'm not sure of which card I should buy.
Does anyone knows it?

Thanks for your help!!!

If the mac compatible controller cards seem too expensive then try a cheap USB 2 card and an external encosure
