[G4] SATA drive

[Tony Gamble]

Steve's right on that count.  You'd have to weigh in extra storage  
space versus the enhanced performance of SATA.  Though, on an older  
G4 the speed boost in drive access times may breath new life into  
your computing experience.  I've rebuilt many older machines and am  
always amazed at what a faster hard drive can do for a system.
