Nope. Its 128GB. Next ceiling above that is something ludicrous like several exabytes or something. Can't be arsed to look it up or work it out.

Thanks to everyone for the responses..

There is a software fix now I think about it. Its called Speedtools. Wasn't cheap last time I looked though......

I've replaced the drives on three slot-loading iMacs recently with 7200rpm models, all to great effect. Temperature isn't an issue (modern 7200rpm drives run way cooler than the ol…

Has anyone tried the ADB hack on a Rev B motherboard yet? The site I got the hack from (http://www.bekkoame.ne.jp/~t-imai/imace2.html) said something about rev B not supporting it,…

This link ain't work! I can vaguely remember seeing the site before though and thinking about it. The Rev. A board is really similar to the Rev. B board apart from the changed grap…

Fixed the link. Sorry.

I recently tried to overclock my Yikes G4 from 400 MHz to 450 MHz by reconfiguring the white jumper block. Once in a while it'll attempt to boot up, but most of the time it goes in…

take it to 500! believe it or not a few people have more succes at 500 than at 450! If you don't think it will go, heres food for thought. I just clocked my sawtooth 350 to 450! -c…

How'd you OC a sawtooth? I thought that was impossible. ------------------ -Ruddigger ------------------ Have you had your gigaflop today?

It's done by switching resistors on the back of the cpu card. I did it by desoldering all the PLL resstors and soldering wire leads to the pads. Then I attatched 1/4 watt resistors…

Some time ago I mentioned my scratched iMac monitor. Appears that replacing it costs $430. That's almost the price of a second hand 17" inch Studio Display. What should I do? Find …

Why not buy one of the iMac rack-mount kits, then get that studio display? Peace

They're not as nice as the G3 cases, and they don't boast extra space for my HD.

First generation iMacs have 66MHz buses. Second generation iMacs have 100MHz buses (that's 50% faster). At least in iMacs, what does this exactly mean? Is this the speed at which…

fifty percentum? huh? new math?

Yeah, 100 is 50% higher than 66. Where am I wrong?

even the admin double posts! ^_^ To my understanding, general bus speed is the speed which your CPU talks to the RAM. the PCI and AGP slots have their own bus running at their own…

33 + 33 + 33 = 99 33 + 33 = 66 gee i dunno, looks like 100 is approx. 33 percentum more than 66... double-post? me? never! [This message has been edited by wlonh (edited 07-2…

50% more means this: x'=1.5x (1.5, since it's 50% more than 100%). Therefore: x'=1.5*66 and x'=100 Don't worry, most people don't understand this anyway.

33+33=66 33+33+(1/2)*(33+33)=99 thus the 50% increase. The calculation is done from the 66Mhz Mobo point of view, not the 100Mhz one btw, just out of curiosity, if a post is delet…
