Imac G5 20" - Needs the Hard Disc replacing ?45 ONO


Recommended Posts

It's the machine only - no keyboard, mouse or OS discs included. Is in great condition - there is just one tiny [less than 1mm] mark on the left hand side of the screen towards the middle.


Powers on just fine then freezes at the Apple logo, indicating the HD is dead, most certainly due to overheating.


I'd HIGHLY recommend replacing the HD with a SSD, preferably using a mount, but plenty of people ghetto rig them with double sided tape.


Would be fine for office work, especially if you installed something like Pop_OS or Lubuntu instead of Ios, which would give you better functionality.


Bought it in January, but just never got round to upgrading it and need the space! Any sensible offer considered :)


If you've never tinkered with one of these, this video shows you how to replace a HD in one:

    • Hi SpringTime, I completely understand the concern for protecting birds, but using bells on cats is a bit more complicated. While they may reduce hunting success, they're not always effective & can cause stress for some cats, who are highly sensitive to sound. A better solution is to ensure cats are kept indoors during peak bird activity & providing plenty of enrichment at home to satisfy their hunting instincts. There's a terrible misconception that cats do not require as much mental & physical enrichment as dogs do. But they do, if not more so.
    • But we can train them to kill the foreign invaders, green sqwaky things, and the rats with feathers 
    • Hi Nigello, Many spayed/neutered & microchipped cats actually don't wear collars, as they often go missing & can pose risks.  Microchipping is far more reliable for reuniting lost cats with their guardians. Some of our clients even keep sacks of collars on standby because their cats frequently return without them - a comical but telling example of how impractical collars can be. A major contributor to unspayed/unneutered cats & kittens is purchasing from breeders, where these measures are often overlooked. Adopting from shelters, on the other hand, ensures all precautionary steps - like spaying/neutering, microchipping, as well as vaccinations - are already in place.
