Ok troups, I have a (pro) friend that can do this but I wanted to put myself through a learning curve! Help me out. New HD and replace CD drive. I bought quickly because of TN tax free weekend and big sales All are returnable: I have: G4 466 Processer ATA 30GB HD ATA Sony CD R/RW What I bought: Western Digital: WD Caviar SE ,7200rpm, EIDE, 320 GB HD, 40 pin $99.99 I thought that was a good price. Sony DRU-820A internal DVD/ CD +/-R, Dual/ Double Layer ATAPI (EIDE) $91.99 I have a G4 iBook to boot a DVD 10.4 from if needed and several pros I can contact in my school system if needed. I will be running Logic Express which will need 10.4.6. Apple's site said this will run on a G3 so I think im safe with my G4. Before I waist time on the process, will my new equipment work? I think so but..... what do the pros out there think? If every thing is cool with the equipment we can go from there.
