[G4] WD HD

[Jim Reamer]

Brian,
    I knew you were going to ask me that. I called and the guy gave it 
to me over the phone. I typed the URL into Safari and it immediately 
downloaded and he walked me through the installation. It never actually 
took me to a site and it doesn't show up on my Safari history list.  I 
tried to reconstruct it for everyone but failed. Wait a minute...
    OK, I called them back. Here is the URL -- 
http://support.wdc.com/download/external/wdfwonlymac.hqx
    This isn't a link, so you'll need to cut and paste. I'm told that 
mac 10.2 requires it for the WD firewire drives.
