I partitioned it and reloaded the Classic. It worked fine as well.
I then tried to load OS X onto the other partition and it loaded, but it froze with some type of bad looking streaks running across the startup. I loaded it again. Same problem.
Put back in my old 30 gig Western Digital and partitioned it and loaded both Operating systems. Both work great. So I am up and running.
I'm pretty sure the 60 gig hard drive is the culprit.
My question is this, if I look for another brand to buy, what would be a good hard drive for my Mac G3 - 300 Blue and White tower?
I have not purchased Maxtor nor IBM drives before, but it would seem that all drives must be fairly competitive, or is there any one drive that may fit my Mac better?
It it possible to get a super fast drive - I mean faster than these Western Digitals. The reason I bought these is because they are easy to find in most stores.
Thank you for any help.
