You know what, if that works as well as it seems, it would also make upgrading totally easy as plugging in a hard drive. Wow. I was gonna get a FW HD for backup. Maybe I should use…
I was lucky and had a Hitachi 60GB 7200rpm in my Dell laptop.
I swapped that drive with the 80GB 4200rpm Mini drive and it made a HUGE difference.
I have an emergency copy of OS …

I just got my PM dp2.0 yesterday. No chirping that I can detect. I've got the unit on the floor, but fairly close by. The only thing I hear are the disk drives accessing.

I'm not convinced that it's quite as simple as just a power supply defect. My new PowerMac didn't chirp at all, but then I had to get the mainboard replaced by AppleCare and now i…

Forget the dock. It is worthless to a power user. Personally, I use a shareware app called DragThing which allows me MUCH more control over various 'docks' that I can enable. I …
