Will 3rd party drives have the right connector on it? IIRC, the slot load drive in the iMac has a 50 pin IDE + Power + Sound cable. That seems a little too odd for generic drives. -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ------------------------------------------- The CD uses a standard Slimline drive connector and has an adaptor board attached to it. http://store1.yimg.com/I/lovemacs_1817_3985613 You will just have to move the adapter board to the new drive. I don't know however if the iMac cd is master or slave and you might have to change the replacement drives setting depending on how the replacement drive ships. You can check and see what it is or some one here should know (Anyone?). -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
