[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 892213, member: 8287"] From the looks of your specs, you should have a Mirror Drive Door (MDD) which does not have the 128GB Limit, so that 500GB drive should work. Not sure on the MDD on which drive is which, but on older G4 Powermacs the lower drive was usually the first drive and the upper the 2nd. There is a Dual 1Ghz Quicksilver model also. The MDD has Optical Drive Doors that look very shiny like a mirror. [/QUOTE]
