Hi. I recently installed a second drive on my G5 dual 2.0. It is a Seagate Barracuda 160 MB Serial ATA drive. From my research, it was one of the top drives recommended for the G5. And it works great! It was very easy to install - the directions for doing so are nicely detailed in the G5 setup manual, or you can go to the Apple site and download a pdf file which shows you how to do it. Go to:

Hi, I installed a western gital WESTERN RAPTOR 74GB SATA150 10000rpm 8MB drive into my G-5. THis drive doesn't have tons of gigas but is probably the fastest SATA drive available today. It works great and I can use audio and video at the same time. The Mbps throughput should enable loads of audiotracks to be read.
(Very easy to install) I have mixed an album entirely with my G-5 and Logic Pro. More than 32 Audiotracks, encountered no bottleneck even though I used several Space designer plug-Ins. Have fun Durga |
