After watching a lot of video and reading horror stories about extra screws and not being able to get the casing flush, I was very unmotivated to upgrade my g4 ibook drive.
So I watched prices of 120gb 5400 3.5" drives drop from $300 to $70 over the course of 2 years and just grin and beared the stock 4200rpm 30gb drive.
Just when I was ready to buy one and attempt the upgrade, I saw the light and bought a new 2.4ghz macbook w/160gb drive, DL superdrive, etc ($900).
I glad I never opened my ibook.
