Is this just for the PowerBooks? I pulled a problem (Apple branded) Maxtor from a friend's 2 year old G4, replacing it with a new and larger drive. I got an RMA, sent in the old Maxtor still under warranty, and got a replacement for it. Didn't have to say it was in an Apple or anything. The warranty expiration was written right on the old Maxtor Now that replacement Maxtor drive sits in one of my own G4s at home (took the drive as payment for the work on friend's computer).
