Hi. I'm using a PowerMac G4 'Sawtooth' as my Intel iMac died. First the internal hard drive went then the machine went altogether.
I am now wondering whether the hard drive is fine and the fault is something else. The DC board looks a bit burnt. What's the easiest way to hook up the SATA drive to the G4. Can you get internal IDE to SATA converters? Can you buy PCI to SATA cards? Would a USB to SATA be a better idea? I have seen these quite cheap on eBay, but they all say USB2 and my G4 only has USB1.1. Would this work albiet slow or does it have to be USB2? Any ideas?
