I am interested in buying this machine but to anyone who is can I say what a damn good machine the MDDs are! I have had one now for 3 years (1.42GHz DP, 1GB RAM, 2 x 120GB HD, 128MB gfx card) and it is great. Just as a side note; I thought the maximum hard drive was 120GB for the G4 (something to do with maximum ATA hard drive size).

Anyway good luck with selling.

Nope, not sure what the max HD size is, but this one can take anything I believe, even the 750GBs.

This system can handle large drives natively. The older G4s (PCI for sure [Yikes] and perhaps the Sawtooth, along with the beige G3s couldn't support 120+GB...

there *is* however software for those systems from macsales.com that will indeed allow larger drives to be installed and Mac OS X will be able to read the entire partition.

All of this is moot since the OP's machine does in fact support large hard drives. The MDD was a great machine.

And still is a Great machine. I love mine. I just wish the Fans weren't so damn loud, but then again i guess it would help if i didn't have 4 HDs in it. :D

I'd also take trades for something cool, like an XBox 360 package, Apple Cinema Displays (Aluminum only), or other cool $#!*.
