Dominique -

I have forwarded this posting to the best place (at least in far-western
europe) where it can be answered - uk.comp.sys.mac.

The newsgroup demon.tech.mac is for issues relating to connecting Macintoshes
to the ISP Demon Internet here in the UK.

Pretty much anything upto a 120gb ide drive will fit either a 5400 or
7200 unit, though some are wary of the extra heat killing the drive
sooner, but there is a few of us here running them with no problems. The
jumpers just need setting to master, fit the HD, reasemble the iMac,
insert the OS9/X (depending on which system he's running) hold C and use
the disk utility on the CD for 'initialise' the disk, you can also
partition it at this stage and then run the installer.
