[QUOTE="Flux45, post: 1000464, member: 144173"] I am needing to upgrade my MacBook Pro (1st Gen, Intel Core Duo) hard drive due to failure of the stock drive. I was wanting to get the Seagate Momentus 7200.4 but have been reading many stories about the G-Shock in the Seagate drive not being compatible with Apple's SMS. I have also read about a firmware update that has potentially solved this problem. Most of the stories I have read, however, are over a year or two old. What is the final word on this issue, are they now compatible, or am I inevitably going to have to turn off SMS or buy a non G-Shock hard drive? I'd rather not disable SMS if I dont have to. Thanks [/QUOTE]
