i am going to use a ifixit.com guide to do it and i am also going to get a few tools from them - now i just have to figure out what hard drive to get. in that original thread GHporter suggested this hard drive

i was thinking a smaller version of that one because i dont really need 80gb

that should work with my G4 800mhz right?

thanks guys i appreciate the help

Yep, that drive would work. I personally would recommend this drive:

Samsung drives are extremely reliable, very quiet and don't get hot (that's one reason why they are so reliable) - and still this drive is $10 cheaper. But I heard nothing negative about the drive you've chosen, either.
