Has anyone tried to put a larger than 250 GB SATA drive in a Powermac G5. I figure if Apple can put a 400 GB drive in their Xserve then you could possibly in the PM G5.

Yes...any Hard drive will work on a PowerMac.
U could put 2.8tb IN a PowerMac! 7x400gb HDDs!

and i cant find the link to the other device that adds more internal drives.... but its a better idea to go with an external SATA enclosure. :D

I just mean in the 2 spots that are available in the PM only. Just wondering as there really shouldn't be a limit to those 2 spots. I knew you could add elsewhere in the case.

I see in your sig you have 2x300GB in it. You have answered my question.

Edit was to add last sentence.
