I'm a PC girl, but live in a MAC world and need to add a second hard drive to my dual processor G5 for video editing... Any suggestions or recommendations on hard drives? I'm looking to add at least 200 GB... I'm so used to PCs, that I'm afraid I'll mess something up trying to order for a MAC...

Many thanks!

A PC girl? You should switch! Yes, that drive will work fine.
Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

250GB is currently the optimum point in terms of storage per dollar. I recommend Seagate, since they include a 5 year warranty.

250GB Seagate for $101, 300GB for $134.
