[G4] Hard drive replacement advice, please

[CDT]

I don't understand how a drive could cause this.  I would try  
swapping the positions of the 2 drives (verify jumpers).  See if the  
problem follows the drive or remains with the position.  Maybe a  
cable or connector problem?

I have been using Hitachi drives for about 5 years now in 7 Macs  
including 3 ibooks, and a dual 1Ghz MDD.  No problems.  I have two  
(2) 250 Gb drives in the MDD.  I pick a drive and buy it where I get  
the best price.  The link below shows Hitachi drives for your machine.
