My third fetish is the one we’ll be satisfying today In a case where the computer in the entertainment center was running over wireless, it would be much preferable to share this stuff from the Cube over a wired LAN connection. This same project could also be done with a Mac mini and a MiniStack, or even a full-blown desktop PowerMac if you do not mind the noise and additional wasted space.
The install process is quick and painless and requests a restart when it is done. Most drives ship with the jumper in Cable Select mode. It requests a password, then opens up to a small window that lets you choose a drive and click “Extend Capacity Now”.

Even if I’m just downloading the latest version of Cyberduck at 10MB, if I’m doing it at the coffee shop the network is clogged enough to begin with so it would be nice to offload that to my Cube which is sitting at home waiting for something to do. I have a large GB drive which is normally mounted in a FireWire case. It offers a handful of tools and I read the Info on each before installing see the View buttons in the image below.
It boots great, it mounts everytime and I ontech an unexpected surprise, its now faster! I am really tempted to stick with what Intceh know and use Carbon Copy Cloner, but I am going to give this a chance since I bought it.

Remember that I was already using this machine as a NAS, so this tutorial is not about setting up every detail from scratch, but rather taking an existing install and cloning it over to a new large drive and then taking atta of the additional size using the Intech software. Works fine on a dual G4 GB internal. I let it run overnight, so I can’t say how long it took, but when I came back to it, I found a dialog stating that the backup had completed successfully.
This year, I am on another mission to save hi-cao particular Mac from the dust bins, but this time the project is both practical and attractive. Yep, works just fine.
