FWIW, I've upgraded (twice) with Travelstar 7200rpm drives, a 40gb and
a 60gb, and I've never had any problems with heat or noise. I haven't
put them in an iBook, though, so I don't how that would go.

Dear Listers:
I bought this G4 iBook 1.2 gig about 3 months ago. I love it! It
gets a LOT of use and it seems to be my primary Mac. The only thing I
don't love about it is that it only has a 30 gig hard drive. Mind
you, I currently have 21.02 gig free but a 30 gig hard drive just seem
sort of 'small'. If I were to invest in a bigger hard drive, how hard
would it be to upgrade it myself (I've done a lot of work on PCs in
the past....name it, I did it and I've installed RAM and switched out
hard drives on G4 towers).
Is the iBook a bit too compact to go doing this myself? I don't want
to kill it! And, if it's not too difficult, what is a good choice for
a replacement? Lastly, if I needed to have it done at my local Apple
store....about how much $$ am I looking at?
Thanks,
Tim Collier
