[G4] Still trying to revive the dead G4 MDD

[Tim Collier]

Another option would be to install an SATA drive controller.  The  
cards are available from many sources.  Just do a google search.  I  
found one for a good  price at CompUSA.  The SATA drives are the  
newest trend in hard drives anyway.  The transfer data faster and  
last time I looked came in sizes up to 400 gigabytes.  So, instead of  
wasting your money on another ATA hd controller, consider an SATA.  I  
put on in my Quicksilver dual 1 gig.  Works really nice.

Exterminate all rational thought.
