Was it hard? Did you have any problems? Are you experiencing lower
Well, it's not a newbie opration. But if you're cool with the hardware,
no problem, you'll do it. The most important is to have enough place for
all the pieces.
About time : you need nearly 1h30 to 2h of work. You'll see a lot of
pieces...Be carefull with the keyboard.
They're a lot of web pages about ibook hard disk removing. Soory, I have
no link. But it will be easy for you to find one with google.
battery lifetimes due to the 5400rpm drive?
No, no problem with battery lifetime. between 3 an 4 hours.
Which model did you install?
IBM Model : IC25N040ATCS05-0 40.00GB # the original was a 30 GB
S/N : F4G2BS9A
I must say I didn't put it inside again (after the motherboard
exchange). I now am using it with the ieee1394 port. (in a silverfly
box). But if I found a not expensive 7200 tr/min, I'll probably do it
again ;-)
I'm curious about any hints others may have regarding the drive upgrade
of the iBook...
I'm curious with any hint above hardware upgrade ;-)
[]s, Roger...
