Well, it was finally bound to happen. After four and a half years I had drive failure in my Machintosh G3. Truth be told it wasn’t really Apple’s fault, it was IBM’s (a deskstar drive). SInce this happens on the nexus of me installing OS X ver3, Mac World Expo across the bay, and thinking (albeit stupidly) that after two years of running a RAID setup and never using it, I’d kind of like to get some drive space back, it seemed relevant. In case any of you are wondering-the life for IBM’s drives bought in 1999 is about up.
