I had a great hard drive icon that I forgot to save when I sold my iMac. It is gray with a dark gray apple on top and has rounded edges with a G5 like grill in front with a power light. It has the 3 dimentional appearance just like the native desktop drive icon in OS X. I've checked the resexcellence icons but no luck. Any help[ would be appreciated! Thanks!

EDIT: The name of the icon pack is G5 Drives but when I download the icon set there is a folder with nothing in it. Anyone have this?

when you unzip, and nothing is in the folder, create a new folder inside the unzipped one...this is a known bug in tiger :-)

after creating a new folder inside that unzipped one, all the icons should appear

I didn't know that! I enabled the show hidden files using tinker tool and I could see the folder with the icons. I dragged it to the desktop and bingo....I could get them. Thanks! I'll remember that.

I am looking. What is wrong with them? They are both pleasant to look at and built on common sense and usability rules unlike "guess how to work this" up there.
