Chris: Open up the Apple System Profiler in you Apple menu and it will tell you. SCSI is 50 pin (narrow) ATA / EIDE is 40 pin Even if it is SCSi you can get a cheap EIDE controller card (PCI) under $50 and then connect the 80GB EIDE hard drive. Western Digital with the 8MB cache were down to around $80 after rebate this week at Best Buy or Circuit City! Dave
