Just after I got done asking, I found both of what I needed on Ebay. For some reason I was not pulling up results before. Must have been a typo.

 Thankx for all the help, I'll call up my crappy ISP today and check into the DNS.

 Once again Dana I have to say you are VERY hot. :)

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.
