I bought a Firewire casing from OWC and use the old drive for backups. Works great.

I have a 10 gig hard drive from my 500 mhz ibook sitting on a shelf. I replaced it with a 40 gig. I plan on putting the 10 gig into my orange clamshell ibook which only has a 3 g…

When my old Pismo G3 20Gb filled up I replaced it with a 60Gb Travelstar and bought a transparent Oxford bridge case for it. A year later, I upgraded the Pismo to a 12"PB Rev A wit…

I am using an 80gb d2 drive with my powerbook and it has worked perfectly from day 1

I'm using a 200 gig d2 drive with my 12" PB. It's great, no complaints at all. The advantage of the d2 over the pocketdrive is that it's much cheaper, isn't it? Disadvantage bei…

I have a 120GB Lacie D2 in my desk and a 80GB portable Lacie HD porsche design.... Beautiful design, not problems with them at all... You can buy with a smile on your face best …

Thanks for the replies. Ended up getting the 160 gig d2 drive (no 120 gig ones on the shelf at the soho store). I should be getting it in a couple weeks (unless someone steals it…
