Re: Internal Hard Drive Question

[Charles Martin]

From: Jim Dynes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I have a 10 gig internal drive and a 80 gig external. The internal is 
going
bad I think, so I need to replace it. What is the maximum gigs that a 
Mac
can recognize?

YOUR Mac can recognise up to 128 GB per drive (actually 137, I think, 
but that's unformatted).

Also, I have seen posts about certain drives don't work well as an 
internal
drive. I need to know which ones work well.

I have a 400 slot loader.
I have put a Western Digital SE 8MB 7200 120GB in my iMac slot-loader 
(as a replacement for the original hitachi 5400 60GB) and it works 
fine. No heat problems or anything. I don't think you need to worry 
about that at all.
