[QUOTE="RayLee, post: 396118, member: 14564"] I am sorry, I am 100% sure the info is already here but I get hundreds of hits that are unrelated to my questions. I have a G4 (firewire 800/gigbit model "mirrored doors") 2 gig ram....anyway I decided to replace my 2 160gig HD's with larger 300gig units, but I am unsure of what to buy....The 300gig Seagates seem to have a different cable system than my older units (old models say "Ultra ATA" the new ones I bought say Serial ATA) Will these work with some new cables or sis I indeed get teh wrong units. also how large can I go? will my Power PC G4 10.4.9 be able to "see" 300 gig drives? thank you, I am sitting here screwdriver in hand waiting for your answer :) [/QUOTE]
