Need an internal hard drive

[aaron]

I know a few people on this board pull computers apart for a living and i was wondering if anyone had a spare internal 20 - 40 GB hard drive.
Its for my aging mac G4 and i think it needs a ATA-100 interface. Not too sure what other info i need to know compatability wise.
Let me know if you have something kicking around

Most any IDE drive will work, I like Maxtor. You can add up to a 120gb drive, (your machine won't recognize anything higher than 128gb without 3rd party software).
I don't have anything at the monent, but you can find some really good deals on Craig's list if you don't have any luck here.
I just recently got a 60gb used for $30, and a brand-new sealed 200gb for $80.
Good luck!
