Don't get larger than 120GB HD, if you do you'll have to partition a start up drive of 120GB (OS can't "see" or be installed on a drive larger than that).

You didn't specify the processor speed of the G4, that will determine if you can run OS 10.3 or 10.4.

[quote|andersong]Hi Machead3, It is 1.25mz[/quote]

Yes Depending up on your RAM you can use either 10.3, 10.4, (at least 256 MB of RAM) or 10.5 (a PowerPC G4 [867MHz or faster] processor and at least 512MB of memory).

Good Luck,

For a better performance with Tiger or Leopard you should run full ram and your PB can take 2 gigs.

Andersong, you can have up to 2GB of ram, 1GB pc2700 in each slot, it will run OS 10.5 Just fine, and hard drive's up to what is manufactured for ATA drives.. 160GB are very poplar, as are 250GB ATA Drives..
