Well, i might add now, that i put in a DVD in my drive, and it stopped working, the drive didnt work from then on. There is nothing that i know of wrong with the DVD, however now i…

We just ordered a new 1.25ghz AlBook in the office. It's 512 megs of RAM is 256x2, and we'll probably update one of the slots to 512, to get 768 in the powerbook and have a 256 me…

No. because the TiBook uses a PC 133 SODIMM while the AlBook uses PC 2700 DDR SODIMM They are NOT backwards compatible

Well, in a word, nuts. Anybody wanna buy a 256 meg 2700 DDR SODIMM?

There's a guy who's interested in trading his 12" Albook (2 months old) for my 15" Tibook (14 months old). Both have 1Ghz processors and superdrives. I have 1gig RAM, he has 768. …

Never mind - I found a thread that helps me answer the question. -Jason

Is there a maximum HD size that I can fit in a bw G3? I have 60+6 Go on the IDE bus, and I consider removing the original 6 GB HD and installing a 120GB HD instead. Can the origin…

I don't think that the bus would be the problem there. I had a B/W G3 myself and I installed a bigger HD, but I ran into another problem: In some of the earlier revisions, the IDE …

I have 2 additional pieces of info regarding your reply: My dual HD configuration works only in X. The only time I booted in 9 it erased my 60 GB.... There is indeed a bug in the I…

The rev. 1 B&W G3 had an IDE controller chip that could only support 1 hard drive (and ATA/33 drives at that). In fact, the short IDE cable attached to the drive has only one c…

I had two 120GB Seagate Barracudas in my Revision 2 B&W using it's onboard IDE. Never gave me a problem. I'd still recommend a PCI ATA/100 or 133 controller nonetheless. The …

So is the sonnet pci ata card the best one? Are there any OS X compatibility issues? lw

Unless you are doing video work, (and if you are still using a G3, I'm guessing no) a ATA/66 card will do you fine. You can get them much cheaper then ATA/100 or ATA/133 cards as …

I have a B&W G3 and am thinking about upgrading the drives in a similar manner. However, I am a little unclear on the PCI cards. All of the boxed PCI ATA controllers I see in…

You have to buy one that is specifically made for Macs. If the box has no mention of Mac compatability, then move on. The only way to really get PCI ATA controllers for Macs is on…

That makes it fairly easy.... I'll take a look at that page. Thanks!

I had this issue a couple of years ago and got good advice on this board. I kept my original 6GB hard drive (I use it just for Classic now), and added two Seagate 80 GB ATA drives,…

I recently set up a Rev 1 300MHz B&W as a server and found this discussion very helpful. After getting through the video issues (see http://archive.mac-mgrs.org/archive/...0102…

I spoke just a little too soon. It turns out that the 60GB drive I mentioned above refused to work even on the same bus as the CD. It was only recognized as a 30GB drive. However, …
