WEREWEASEL  What partition map is the drive formatted with? WD probably formatted it with the GUID partition map for Intel Mac compatibility. If so, that would explain why you have trouble booting it on a PPC Mac. PPC Mac users should reformat the drive to use the older Apple partition map.

Hopefully that's all it is, since I'm thinking of getting one of these drives.
