Actually, I ended up never putting any SSD in my PowerBook G3. xx( OWC was the only SSD vendor I found who sold a turnkey SSD solution that had an IDE/ATA Interface. Most SSD's are SATA drives.

So if any of you out there reading this come across a quality, "confirmed and guaranteed to work in a PowerBook G3" SSD with IDE interface, please report back here!

I also would love to find a turnkey SSD solution that has an old 50 pin SCSI-1 or SCSI-2 interface, for use in an SE/30. Yes I am well aware that most people use a CF card solution and hack together a compatible compatible interface. But the best solution is really an all-in-one unit that has the SSDs memory and interface built into the same unit. You also get more longevity and consistent speed with a true SSD, especially those from OWC which have 7% over provisioning.
