[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1234652, member: 42497"] G'day and welcome to the forums. Confusing this right side and right side desktop business. What is the G4? Early G4's will not recognize drives over 128GB without using a special tool. If you remove the 20GB drive, assuming it is the internal, replace with the 300GB, will show as either the 128GB, or if a MDD model the full 300GB. If your computer is a desktop G4 a PCI card can be installed to read the full size of the drive:- [url]http://lowendmac.com/macdan/05/1024.html[/url] [/QUOTE]
