Re: My power pc 8500 with no hard drive

[Andrew Wiens]

Presumably it's an IDE drive if it's from a Windows machine.  The 
8500 needs a SCSI drive, so no, It won't work unless you have a SCSI 
50-pin drive.  Check ebay for one.

Hello! I have a powerpc 8500 with no hard drive! I also have
a 4 gb hard drive out of an ibm aptiva. Would this hard
drive work in the 8500? Thanx! ~ Ben ~
