to purchase a Firewire HD enclosure and a large capacity PATA (IDE) HD, purchase them separately and it's cheaper, connect it all up and plug it into your iMac.
After you have initialized it and it mounts on the desktop, drag your bulging media across to the new drive and you will be all set.
It is possible to install a large (capacity) drive into the iMac without voiding the warranty. The drive is a user replaceable item. It takes a regular SATA drive which available from any good computer/electronics store.
Problem there is that you have to reinstall the OS again and are still left with what to do with the old drive.

I have a 17" Rev. C iMac G5 (iSight), and my 160 GB harddrive is running out due to all the media I store on the computer. In the last month I've gone from 60 to 28 GB left.
Is there any way to (warranty permitting) upgrade my mac's HD? I think the answer is no ![]()
