Hey everyone,
So I recently put two 500GB IDE HDs in my MDD, and I found that that's sort of useless, considering an MDD file server (if I DID make one) would be a big power-sucker. I have a 450Mhz G4 'graphite' that could use the HDs, but obviously it doesn't have large HD support...
I know of one program (I forget the name) that enables large HD support on an unsupported Mac, but it's paid software. I know $15-or-so isn't such a big deal, but it's a hassle for me, especially because I am not an adult and don't have a credit card. (needless to say, it's just annoying to drag my parents over to purchase some thing which they have no knowledge on). Another reason is that $15 is probably about what this G4 is worth, so I don't want to total it here.
Are there any similar programs out there that are FREE? This practice is a little bit obscure, so I got unrelated things when I tried searching for it. I'll continue looking in case...
-Thanks
