another stupid computer question[views:881][posts:7]_____________________________________ [Dec 8,2006 9:21am - hungtableed ""] I need a bigger hard drive to install the new os x on my mac. I've got a spare 40g in my old computer that I bought right before I put the thing out of commission. Can I install that in the mac? Are hard drives pc/mac compatable? |

| ___________________________________ [Dec 8,2006 9:48am - anonymous ""] I think that's exactly what I have, a 400mhz g4. I want to get the new os x and from what I've gathered my g4 should be compatable. |

| ______________________________________ [Dec 8,2006 10:28am - hungtableed ""] I know dick about computers. I didn't think you could use a pc hard drive in a mac because just about everything else is not compatable. |
