Hi everybody,
Sorry for the double-posting but the search is adamant there is no topics with my keywords
My Powerbook G4 (12") has its dvd drive showing its age struggling to grab discs and sometimes is finicky reading some.
The big question is: can I get away with any slot-in PATA laptop drive or must I track down a Matsushita hopping it aged well? And bonus question: would any drive be bootable or is there some Apple magic in the firmware of their drives that is necessary for booting off a CD/DVD?
Thanks in advance for any experience/knowledge you havr on the subject
