So I have all the usual questions, but I'll start with two.
I rather like my old G5 and so what I am doing to it is merely a repair since the Apple motherboard failed and the Apple store wanted a humongous amount to replace it. While I am inside I'd like to upgrade the DVD drive. Does anybody know which drive will open the little door? Which drive can I take the front plate off so it will open the door on the case. And one more thing, I'd like it to be a SATA drive, just because. I might spring for my first Blu-Ray writer, but I really hate the fact that the Studios have built the license price into the blank disc price, but being able to write backups 25 gig at a time would be nice.
And the second question, and this is sort of a moot point as I've already ordered the part and I'll make it work, somehow. But can anyone tell me whether they see a problem with my using this Power Supply? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817338055
It is 700 Watts and
Dimensions 3.93" x 1.57" x 9.84"
