[QUOTE="nunofrrb, post: 49398"] Hello I need help, I just added a 200gb internal hard disk to a power mac g4 733mhz and OSX only recognizes 137gb(127 formated). Drive is a seagate barracuda ata100, 7200rpm. I got an answer saying that's because this large drives require ata133 bus and my mac is only ata100. (although hard disk is ata100). How do I solve this? Is there any osx upgrade that can solve it? Can I use a PCI IDE controler card to enable the full 200gb? or just sell it and get a 120gb drive instead?(don't like to "loose" 70gb!) Thanks in advance nuno [/QUOTE]
