[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1344291, member: 42497"] Not quite true. OWC have released the IDE Mercury Legacy Pro and Google has many reports on the speed up in a G4 PowerBook. Fitting them in a G5 may require the use of an Icey Dock or similar to convert from 2.5" to 3.5". Here is a link to OWC. Have a look and ask them through the chat line about installing in a G5. Before jumping suggest you think the value through as G5 PowerPC are old technology and will not run the last two operating systems nor quite a few applications which are Intel only. Maybe putting the money towards an Intel machine may the better option.
