[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 722758, member: 56231"] Alternative suggestion ... are you going to keep that old G3 or discard it? If it's headed eventually for the trash, why not pull the hard drive from it and hook it up to your G5 with a IDE(ATA)-USB adaptor kit, cost about US$15. If you're going to keep the G3 for using with the scanner, then just pop that hard drive back in. Those G3s are simple to work on. [/QUOTE]
