I disconnected the hard drive bracket and slid it to one side and removed it, then removed the hard drive (squeezing it out just wasn't working for me).

Before I discovered IFIXIT I had purchased a hard drive from Western Digital and am hoping it is the correct one for my 17" iMac G5, 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. The WD drive's description is TRESXLB2 7200 64M SATA3 6GB/S 1.0 TB 2HD STD . Can anyone tell me if I will have problems with this drive? Western Digital's recommendations fit this description for my iMac. Thank you. Ron

Excellent presentation. My iMac G5 came apart easily just as described. The unit still worked perfectly but had been on the shelf for years as the screen was almost blacked out with lines. The G5 was replaced with an Intel model but I miss certain aspects of the old system. I'm hoping the HDD will boot up a G5 Power Mac so I can reminisce!
