[QUOTE="bryphotoguy, post: 693040, member: 26695"] Adding more RAM won't help the situation. Photoshop CS3 will only recognize 3GB. Unless you're running more apps that are stealing RAM, you really won't see a benefit to adding more. Way around the 128GB limit the IDE ports allow on the board is to buy a PCI adapter. It will have either the SATA or IDE connections for you to run the HD's through that. You could toss 4- 1TB HD in the G4 that way. I would assume data won't transfer very fast seeing it will all be going through one PCI connection. [/QUOTE]
