its a torx T-10 hex
very helpful ****** star many thanks
because apple’s parts run together better than what you normally find on a pc
RAM is RAM
Also, does anyone know how big of a hard drive the 1st generation flat panel g4 can support? I have the 800mhz 17in version; I’ve read that they can only go up so far in size. something to do with the drive bus working at only so fast of a speed? Any help would be appreciated
Lowendmac says that any Mac introduced after June 2002 should be able to exceed the 128 Gb limit. Yours was introduced in July 2002 so by that standard it should be fine. Everymac says that your model has the HD limit. I’ve read comments by people that say some do and some don’t and you just have to try it to find out. You can get a nice 80Gb 7200 rpm Seagate drive for under $40 and an external firewire for extra space. Or you can get a larger drive and partition it with sub 128 GB partitions.
Apple says that the first generation iMac G4′s have the 128GB limit, but people say that the full drive is detected if they install a larger drive. From the second generation it can officially support drives larger than 128GB.
