Laptop Hard Drive Replacement
I have an old PowerBook 15 inch G4 550 mhz laptop. It has a 20 gig hard drive in it now. Can I buy a bigger internal hard drive for this laptop? If so, what is the largest internal drive this unit accepts?
Answer
You can purchase a replacement hard drive for your PowerBook G4. What you need is a 2.5' Parallel-ATA (also referred to as EIDE) drive.
At the time of writing, 2.5' drives are being manufactured in sizes up to 250 - 300 GB.
I would recommend a Hitatchi or Seagate brand drive only.
