Yes, I've finally done it. I've had 2 drives running flawlessly in my 1st B&W G3 for many years now, so today I decided to try and get 3 running in my #2 G3. Specs are very simple. Originally 300MHz overclocked to 350MHz with a CD-ROM drive and 448MB of RAM. I was able to install a 20Gb drive in the ZIP drive bay sharing the CD-ROM bus and set as master device. The regular hard drive bus has another 20GB drive and the original 6GB drive together. The trick is the order in which you attach the drives. The master drive has to be furthest away from the motherboard on the ATA cable, and the slave drive will be set on the middle connector. This has been the case on both of my Rev 1 B&W G3's. So far its running 10.4.11 just fine and I haven't seen any problems. Anybody else been running multiple drives on Rev 1 B&W G3's?
