by dragging and dropping right in the Finder! Our drive is the only optical drive upgrade in the world for the PowerBook G4 that is supported by Apple and enjoys full native Mac OS support. With Tiger (Mac OS 10.4), you can record to 8.5GB Double Layer discs natively. Recording at 8X to both DVD-R and DVD+R media and at 4X to BOTH DVD+R DL (Double Layer) and DVD-R DL (Dual Layer), enabling you to record up to 8.5GB of data on a single side of either a Double Layer OR Dual Layer DVD, this drive eclipses every other PowerBook optical drive on the market today. easily the most technologically advanced optical drive ever created for the Apple PowerBook. We continue this long heritage with the MCE 8X Internal SuperDrive Upgrade with both Double Layer and Dual Layer support.
MCE Technologies was the first company in the world to engineer and offer a SuperDrive upgrade for the PowerBook G4. Plus, the fast, highly reliable drives are compatible with most computer and set-top DVD video players and other DVD burners so video and data DVDs created using these drives can be shared with business associates, friends, and family. This workaround can also be applied to install Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard but the caveat is that it has to be done from a system that is certified to fulfil the minimum specs required to run Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.Limited time offer: Get Apple's new Mac OS 10.4 (Tiger) for only $99 ($30 off the regular price!) OR get Apple's new iLife '06 for only $65 when you purchase this drive! The new MCE 8X DVD±R/RW "SuperDrive" upgrade with both Double Layer AND Dual Layer support for the PowerBook G4 allows PowerBook users to author professional-quality DVDs as well as create, store, and share their collections of videos, music and photography. Once that is completed, simply plant the Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger installed hard drive into the PowerMac G4 and boot it up. So an alternative that will also work is to install Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger onto the intended hard drive for the PowerMac G4 using an external hard drive casing and another Mac. The firmware 4.2.8 can be downloaded together with the instructions from Apple’s support web page.įor most of us, we probably don’t have an OS 9 OS to do this anymore. To install Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger on a PowerMac G4 400MHz (AGP) you actually have to update the firmware on the Logicboard of the PowerMac first. Who would’ve imagined that a PowerMac G4 400MHz which was originally released on Apple’s OS 9 platform, can still until today run not only Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger but also Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard! We have on occasion tested the limits of Apple hardware and have always been amazed by its longevity.
