I have a Powermac Quick Silver 733 with a 30 gig hard drive and
1.3 gig ram. I just purchased a 933 processor for this on ebay for
$40. I want to replace the hard drive but am having problems finding
one on the internet.I have been using hard drive for quick silver with
no luck.
I would like to get at least a 60 hd or 80 if the machine will
take it and costs will allow.I understand I will have to purchase the
os before I finish the upgrade.It will take a while to get this for a
reasonable price.I have leopard 10.7 on the machine.It came with that.
I hope this is the right group. Two groups have told me I have
contacted the wrong one. This machine is a G4 of course.
Do I need to get the os dvds before I have the 933 processor put
in?If I have the 933 processor put in,will it be easier to fool the
machine to reinstall leopard when I increase the hard drive? The
installed hard drive is a Quantum Fireball and not the original for
the computer.
Someone has suggested correctly that,the upgrades I propose will
make the computer close to to a Mac mini in cost. That may be true
but I don't want a Mac Mini with Intel.
