[G4] Seagate drive

[Charles Schneider]

I have always used a firewire box or newer pci card to get around the  
128G limitations on these older machines.

The problem I have with using the Hi-cap driver is when you having  
problems with the harddrive and you startup from another source to  
troubleshoot (i.e. system cd or dvd) you back to being limited to  
seeing 128G.    The problems seem to multiply.......


Just my $0.02
