[QUOTE="01AWW18T, post: 74447"] Hi, I'm on the same boat, I recently bought a 1.42ghz Mac mini with the 80 gig harddrive. However, I will probably not be happy with the 4200rpm drive and will most likely sell that one and get a 80 gig 5400rpm 16mb cache one by Toshiba. Anyone have good instructions as to loading up OSX onto the new harddrive?. I've read about putting the drive in an enclosure and do it through firewire., or to install it in another mac to restore the OS onto the new disk. But I don't want to go buy a firewire enclosure just for this, nor do I have another mac (this is my first mac). Anyone know if its as easy as installing the new harddrive and popping in the OSX disc? Thanks [/QUOTE]
