Hi Everyone,
	I’ve been reading your comments and questions for quite some time with the hopes of Upgrading my Cube in June.  However just as my luck goes my hard drive is on its last legs.  I downloaded the installation guide on apple’s website, but I still have a few questions because I’ve never done this before and I know you guys and gals can help me.  

Do I have to replace the Hard Drive with an ATA-66 or can I use the ATA-100?  What is the best replacement drive under 100GB?  

Once I get the new Hard Drive can I use the Discs that came with the Cube to Reinstall the OS (I will be using my OS 9 for now to save money)?  If some one could give me a step by step on this process you will have made my day!

THANK YOU

MELANIE
