Re: Upgrading PM G5 with DVD-RW
I have that model G5, it doesn't use a 'carrier'; it use 4 special screws in the bottom holes. The oversize head of these screws slides into the G5's drive bay clips. Just swap the screws from the stock drive. I use a Sony Q28A which is recognized as an Apple-shipped SuperDrive.

Can they be fitted to any laptop or are they only SATA? I couldn't find any IDE ones. Simon I don't know how relevant this is but I think it is interesting. Cyberguys offers adapter cards that convert CF cards to either ata or sata so you could plug them into a computer to function exactly as a drive (pn 168 0201 and 168 0202). They connect to the standard internal drive connectors. I guess you could replace the internal drive of a MacBook with the sata version of one. But it would have small capacity and be slow. Of course, Compact Flash cards aren't as much used as they were and are not as cheap as SD cards in large sizes. Such a device that would accept SDHC cards could be VERY useful. These are the ones starting to be used in camcorders to replace tape, drives or DVD recording. They can have large capacity, are very fast and above all are amazingly cheap. I paid less than $30 for an 8 gig card for my Lumix camera. I paid less than $10 for a compatible card reader. Solid state memory will certainly replace mechanical methods in every application. It's cheaper, smaller and more releable. Maybe soon.

LBA48 is really a special variation of the IDE protocol wherein the logical block number is sent to the drive in two parts, each of these being 24 bits. All large drives are aware of this new LBA48 protocol, whereas it is the host adapter (PCI card), or the Mac (IDE buses), which may, or may not support this protocol. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

PowerPC games anyone?
I'm in the process of acquiring of a Powermac G5 DP, which will be used primarily as a home server, and hence won't have much load. As long as I'm acquiring such a fine piece of PowerPC hardware, it occurred to me it might run games better than my old Sawtooth or single-core G5. Does anyone care to recommend any good RPG's or strategy games for PowerPC (OS X)? It seems that everything interesting coming out these days is Intel-only, so I'm restricted to playing the latest and greatest on my Intel iMac. It'd also be fun if I could install said game on Intel and PPC hardware, so I could invite a friend or two over to play head-to-head. I have Neverwinter Nights 1, and it ran poorly on all the old hardware I had, including Sawtooth, Quicksilver and single-core G5. I suspect that was partly due to the small amount of RAM I had (512 MB.) Will it run better on a dual-core G5 with a decent graphics card (Radeon 9700 Pro)?

burning a DVD-R-W
When you burn a DVD -R-W: 1. Can you delete stuff you have burned on it? Or is it there forever? 2. Can you amend files and text on the DVD? 3. Should I put a variety of programs on a DVD (such as games, utilities, downloaded/bought software) or stick to one kind? Thanks for answering!

Re: Hard drive?

I suspect you can, but I haven't tried it myself. Put a 500 GB on a Mac which doesn't support large drives and it shows up as 128 GB. The LBA48 property is easy to add to many G4s, and is unnecessary on anything made including and after the QS 2002. The High Cap kext is another route, and it works back to the G3s, for which the LBA48 property probably doesn't exist. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
