[geeks] SATA on G4 Power Mac (bootable?)

[Lionel Peterson]

Hello all,

I've got a couple G4 Macs (450 & 466 MHz), and I want to up the performance a 
bit. They currently have about a gig or more of RAM, and without investing in 
a processor upgrade ($200 for a 1 GHz upgrade), I'm wondering if shoving in a 
PCI SATA controller such as this[0] would give me a meaningful boost in 
performance - anyone ever use one? I'd like to remove IDE drives and install 
a couple SATA drives, ideally booting off the SATA drive.

Thanks in advance,

Lionel
