Yes Dana IS very HOT!!! Ouch!
Oh yeah, the mac thang.
I have a Powermac 5400/120, it's IDE and I put a Western Digital 20GB/7200RPM/2MB cache in it and it's just fine.
As a matter of fact it even starts up and works faster than it did the 1 GB drive
Just buy a WD and fly. I think it has more to do with the OS. With OS9 (and apples older IDE) I have heard you can't surpass one hundred thirty somethin' GB. But then again I have heard 160 work fine.
Try the upgrade "tab" at...
OWC I have bought from these guys they're on the money, fast, and have the right price.
Even if you don't buy from they you can get precise info on the product sold and buy it local, but like I said my experience with them has been great.
