Or even a 1TB drive (make sure it's a 9.5mm version). The best thing here is to locate an older drive (SATA II) or make sure the drive you plan to get has a compatibility jumper and the supplier give you the needed jumper to lower the the SATA speed.Īnd, yes you can put a 500GB drive in.
While they may appear to work the I/O difference will cause errors and will overheat your system as your system works overly hard to correct the errors (overheating it). Sorry to say these drives are too fast for your system. The only real issue will be the SATA interface speed. As you can see your limits of the OS are well beyond what your system can physically hold. The OS will not be your limiting factor Mac OS Extended format (HFS Plus) volume & file limits. Your system supports 2.5" drive that is 9.5mm in height. Sporting an all new translucent 'easy-open' case design (code named 'El-Capitan'), the new G3 was the first Apple model to support FireWire, Apples new high-speed.
But the physical size of the drive must fit within your system. Although it shares the name of its predecessor, the 'Blue' PowerMac G3 is an altogether different animal. Today you can find very large SATA drives (4TB). Your system has a SATA II (3 Gb/s) interface which can support any SATA I or II HD.
