[QUOTE="hoov, post: 50567"] My old bondi iMac's power supply "died" about a year ago, so I'm afraid it's just "lying around" doing nothing. It's got an 80gb harddisk, (which I fitted myself) what I'm wondering is, can I put this in my PowerMac G4-MDD so that I have two harddisks, the 60gb, that it's got already, and the 80 for music, photos etc.??
