[G4] G4 450 Harddrive Question

[Rob Marles]

John
 
Thanks.  I'd spent quite a bit of time on http://www.lowendmac.com/ trying to determine exactly which model I have.  (That's the actual page I pulled sawtooth from)
 
I have the 450 AGP variant...
 
I asked about the hard drives as I only saw the one obvious extra connection point in the case, just never looked further.
 
I do have 1gb of ram, burner, etc.  
 
The only hardware thing left I'd be interested in looking at is swapping the CPU for something faster.

RE: Tiger, thanks
 
It has OS 9 on it and I wanted to go OS X but I've been hesitant because of compatibility warnings.

It's possible to put a third drive where the zip goes, but it will be slow.

Also the adverts are correct, you can run Tiger on your old machine (and it will work better).

Get 1Gb of ram and you will be supprised at how usable an old Mac is as compared to a modern PC. You might consider a cd burner/dvdrom as well.
