Title: Power Mac G4 QuickSilver - internal SATA drives?
Post by: Alex on November 24, 2015, 02:24:56 PM

Hello

Is it possible to add SATA to this machine? I have one and would like to add some larger modern SATA drives. IDE seems to be expensive and usually limited to under 1TB.

Are there solutions?

Tempo sata or serial ata. Check on ebay
