I'm reasonably proficient with tools, but I've never installed a hard  
drive.   I want to install  a 500 gb Seagate hard drive
(  http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Seagate/ST3500630A/  ) in my G4.
My G4 is as follows:

                 Hard Drive                065-4144  2X180GB Ultra

I have the manual that came with the G4 that shows how to install a  
hard drive.
QUESTION:   Is this a plug-and-play project, or should I take my Mac  
to Apple and have them install it?
