<BR>
I have a G4 MDD (1.25Ghz) machine, and successfully installed a Pioneer DVR 116DBK Black Bezel DL DVDRW a little over a year ago. You just need to remove the front drive door off the drive tray.<BR>
<BR>
The forum suggested the unit, and recommended Other World Computing (www.macsales.com). I see the 116 is no longer available, but there is a similar model, the 118, compatible with Mac OS 10.3 and later at <a href="http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Pioneer/DVR118LBKVB1/">http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Pioneer/DVR118LBKVB1/</a> I’m sure they can help.<BR>
<BR>

<BR>
Can I fit a DVD writer into my G4 MDD model? Got it as a dead machine for free, restored it with a new power supply and some clever command lines I got from an internet forum. Speed drive was dead so put in old DVD rom drive I had lying around. <BR>
<BR>
Would a DVD writer work? I assume so as OSX supports them but will the hardware?<BR>
