I did leave out one fairly crucial bit of information. When I put the IBM Ultrastar 7200rpm drive in the Q605, it did sometimes give me the message "This Startup Disk will not work on this computer. A Power PC based computer is required to startup from this disk."
I guess that means the Q605 doesn't support Ultra SCSI. ? The Power PC Macs do I guess... Oh well. In to an external case you go!!
