My current setup is a dual G4 1.42, with 3 hard drives - 2 x 120Gb, 1 x 80Gb.
Digital photography is my thing and I am 75 - 80% full on both added drives and past halfway on the main system disc (courtesy of iTunes). I want to really max out the internal storage on all 4 drive bays, and vaguely remember an 'upper' limit on disc size.
I was thinking of Seagate Barracuda 250 or 300Gb drives, can anybody let me know if these will be compatible, and also if it is worth getting SATA versions of these drives - can they fit without further devices being required?
Thanks

You can use big drives safely. The 128/137 GB limit does not apply to your machine. There's no real reason to get SATA versions and a controller card, the regular versions will work fine for you.
