Mounting Kit Doubles Apple G5 Storage

Granite Digital (www.granitedigital.com) is shipping a new SATA dual drive internal mounting kit for Apple's G5 Macintosh. For a list price of $99, you get your choice of PCI or PCI-e 2 channel host adapter (you gotta know which kind of bus your G5 uses to make this choice), two internal SATA cables, power cable, aluminum mounting bracket, manual, and driver CD. You can also get the kit without the host adapter for $49.95.
