Howdy,
  Let me say up front that I have not tried these on my G4, but I would
be surprised if they did not work.  I have used them on several Linux
systems and they worked fine.  I have no relation to this seller other
than having bought from them at their normal price.  I buy scsi adapters
from MCPB, but their SATA adapters are too expensive, I think.

  Converts a PATA drive to work with SATA controller($6.70 shipped)

  Converts either direction, but needs more room($6.40 shipped)

Good luck,
