Hard Drive for powerbook g4 12" Aluminium

geekgirl

Hi I need to get a hard drive for the machine as mentioned in title. I have had a quick search round but wanted to make sure I was getting a good price. I have found a 250 gb for £86.79 inc vat and postage at mac upgrades. I will be fitting it myself so installation price not needed thanks.

Anyone got any better prices than that please.

Cheers Alison.

I believe this is the same HDD on eBuyer for £64.67 inc vat with free delivery.

And it's not a Mac hard drive, it's just a hard drive. IDE rather than the newer SATA, which is getting rarer now. Main point of my post was to warn you that the 12" POWERBook (not MacBook) is a really difficult wee thing to get into to change the HDD. Just to warn you, hope you've looked at the guides online!

Yes you have to delve pretty deep inside! I have done one before on a 12" powerbook, it was very interesting, I am looking forward to it. Mmmm hadn't noticed that I had put macbook, whoops! Have edited the title now, thanks for spotting that.
