I've a G5 dual 2GHz processor and I would like to know if I can put any normal internal hard disc in my mac because I found a Maxtor 500GB hard drive on the net for like 350$ canadians and 7200rpm. I would like to know if it will work.
 
I put a maxtor SATA drive in and it works fine in my G5 dual 2.0 power mac. It made no mention on the box of being mac compatible but the shelf tag at costco said mac so I tried it. No set up. Just plug it in and go. I did use the utilities to format.
 
any sata drive will work, just format it after you install it..don't worry about whether or not the box says mac, a hard drive is a hard drive...
