Wanted! Buying guidance for around 200GB external Hard Drive for G3 (White/Blue) with OS9.0.
Using for video editing projects, have Final Cut Pro on old system dialed. Don't want to upgrade systems. I just need more room.

Please recommend Drives that are compatible. So far, my search has rendered few choices.

Thanx :)

RixVidIIRC, you will need a version of MacOS 9.2.2 from a Mac that shipped with a similar capacity hard disk if you want to install it on a 200 GB hard disk. If you want to install an older version of MacOS 9, you will have to partition the disk. Only the most recent versions of MacOS 9 can address all of the space on an unpartitioned 200 GB hard disk.
