How big of a hardrive can i use in my gigabit ethernet g4 dual 500.

Hi there.
I wanted to now how big of a hard drive can i use in my gigabit ethernet g4 powerpc with a dual 500 processor . at the present time i have one 80 and one 20 gig drive in there now.
So my answer is how big of a drive can i use before i have problems with seting it up. Like i want to use a 500 gig drive in my computer and my old 80 gig too. i want to buy a apple tv and store my dvds on the big 500 hardrive so i have alot of room for the vidio files, for apple t.v . If i can use one as big as one terabite you now the real big one that would be fine. The more room i have the better for me. I will be able to watch the movies i downloaded from the internet and i wont have to burn them at all.
This is of corse if apple tv will handle it.

Hi-
If you need that much storage, and you'll have to buy a controller anyhow, get a SATA controller card, and put one or two 500gb SATA drives in. The enterprise class of SATA drives are made especially for multi media storage, have excellent seek times and fast data transfer rates. A "bargain" on a package can be had at OWC:

or

The MaxLine Pro drives have great characteristics, and are reviewed favorably.
I have an OWC SATA card, and the card works perfectly, and is cheaper than other makers cards of equivalent specs.

  • How big of a file can I receive?

    Not sure if there is an error or if the file is too big.  My other email provider will allow an email with several pictures attached to be received.  When I forwarded it - it failed.  Then when the sender sent it to my verizon account it failed as well.  We just got our FIOS connnected. SO, is there a limit as to how big of a file can be received by Verizon FIOS?

    i am pretty sure that if you are doing it through verizon.net emai webmail that it is 8 mb,  and if you do it through an email client like windows mail/outlook/entourage that you can do upto 20mb.
    These are the limits for *sending* attachments from Verizon. The only limit on receiving is whether it would put you over your storage quota for your verizon.net mailbox. (Limit is 2 gigs for primary accounts and 250 megs for subs, includes mail in ALL folders.)
    You said sending it failed. What error did you get? Was it an immediate error or a bounceback message?

  • URGENT How may no of queries can be used a datsources in APD

    hi
    could any one pls let me know how many no of queries can be used at once as datsource to load in to transactional ODS in APD CONCEPT
    Regards,
    N

    You can do one (or more) join in the APD which will let you merge data from two previous nodes. This should allow you to get data from two or more queries (as long as you have a logical join condition to connect the data).
    There is nothing like a union though.

    You most likely have zoom on. Double tap with THREE fingers to turn zoom off, if it is on, then: Settings>General>Accessibility...turn it off for good.

  • How big a .pdf file can be?

    I produce a pdf-binder with 1500 several pdf-pages made of scanned paper clippings.
    this binder contains an index to browse the several pages and must be produced on CD.
    the filesize is more than 500 MB, so the performance of this CDs is not so well.
    now my questions:
    how big a acrobat pdf-file can be?
    how many pages can a .pdf document include?
    any tips to boost the reading performance on the CD?

    First, you have to investigate what's the max size your and your recipient's mail providers permit. In many cases, that is the main limiting factor. Next, you need to configure the mail program you use to avoid auto-zip'ing the attachments.

  • How big a Quicktime file can I download into iWeb

    When I create a video in iMovie how big a file can I make it (web-streaming, cd) so it can be published in iWeb and viewed?

    Regardless of how you embed the file in your iWeb page have you tried reducing the file size. One mtehod is to open it in QT Player 7 and use the File ➙ Export for Web and use the Desktop setting:
    Click to view full size
    That can reduce the file size considerable and keep good image quality.

  • Is there a time limit for how long a free form can be used/accessed?

    Is there a time limit for how long a free form that is created can be used/accessed, or is it soely dependent upon when the 50 respondent max has been reached?  I am creating a form now, that will likely be distributed in early January, and I want it to be accessible through the end of June, 2013.  (I am simply using the option to create a single form for free- not the 30-day trial). 

    There is no time limit. The limit is the 50 responses.
