Updating drive sleds in a G4 Xserve
Authored by: imageworx on Sep 14, '04 04:43:35PM

I thought of doing this with our G5 Xserve, but its SATA. Also, the drive sled IS different than the sled in the Xserve RAID (different sized slot connectors).

But yes, the drives are pretty much ATA or SATA (G5). Trying to buy the Apple Drive Modules without drives is fruitless. (i've tried ASP+ and no luck. Apple wants the market on these. eBay best source for used ones)

BTW- I will be selling two NEW (unused) 80 Gig Xserve G5 drives on eBay next week. I upgraded my Xserve G5 to a Hardware PCI RAID card and three 250GB drive modules. Never even started up the Xserve G5 with the 80GB drives.
