By the way, the description of U-shaped is a stretch. I was
trying to figure out what they were talking about when I got the
info from
Apple when they talked about a U-shaped bracket. The bracket is
just a box
that allows you to stack two drives on top of one another with a
space in
between the drives to allow cooling. In between the hard drives the
box has
a not too wide slot cut into it that technically qualifies it as a
U-shaped
bracket, and aids the cooling. As to where you might find one of
these, I am
not sure.
I have a G4 733 DA that came with no internal hard drives. I have
since
added two inside, placing them side-by-side onto two of the three
individual "plates" where they logically attach. It is my
understanding
however that there is a U-shaped bracket that I've heard referred
to as
a "sled" that allows two hard drives to be conveniently stacked in
the
number one space. This would allow me to run two hard drives as
master
and slave using the same cable?? Can anyone explain what this
part is
and where I can get one? Is there another message board related to
this
G-List where people buy, sell, and swap Mac stuff? Thanks for the
help.
The G4's come with such "Dual Hard Drive Brackets" (Apple part #
076-0778). If it is missing, you can buy one from Hardcore Mac:
