I actually installed a second drive which I partitioned into two pieces.
One half is a time machine backup of the G4 and the other half I share
to use as a time machine backup storage for a wireless macbook. Seems to
work well but it does have the fatal flaw of the backup in the same box
as the original. Someday I would like to get a Drobo and locate it
somewhere up high.

Hooray for you! I am so pleased. Wish I could do the same with mine;
but, can't see well enough and my hands are too spastic to
handle/account for all the little screws at the bottom. Most I can
hope for is to get help from a friend to remove the HD from its 'womb'
screeching and screaming; and, to place it in an external dock which I
bought for the purpose and believe it might work [if not destroyed].
My whole life is on that iMac G4 running Tiger!

It's already been through one flood and, after drying out for a
while, still worked. Well, the hard drive that sits in the bottom
of the case was ruined, but a new drive made it all better again.
I keep expecting to turn it on and get nothing but a bad smell out
of it but so far it just keeps on working.

Chris,
Trade you iMac G4's if I could! [Wish mine were still alive!] <grin>
