|
|
Hello,
I am going to upgrade my 1.66's CPU and Ram to the max. Also, I am considering upgrading the HD.
Can you recommend a good harddrive? The bigger the better.
Also, after the upgrade, do I just boot from the snow leopard CD and use disk util?
Thanks! |

Yes, just boot from the SL disc to use Disk Utility.
