mac mini Mac Mini G4 SSD mod

[Underfire17]

I'm kind of a collector of older systems, and I have just gotten my hands on a Mac Mini G4. It works fine for the most part, but it's HDD is absolutely puny in my opinion (40 GB). I have looked online, and have found an option that allows people to take an NVME card and convert it into a PATA compatible drive. I also am thinking about replacing the Superdrive with an SSD to IDE converter and plopping a 250 GB Intel SSD drive in it.

 

I don't know if this will work for the Mac at all. Has anyone tried this, and if so, is it even worth the trouble?

 

I'm seriously modding out this system so the only thing I'm gonna be keeping the same is the OS and it's mainboards.

 

System specs:

1 GB SD RAM

40GB Hitachi HDD (Wanting to replace with the NVME to PATA connector)

Mobile IDE Superdrive (Wanting to replace with Intel SSD)

Apple G4 PPC logicboard

Model Number: A1103 (2005 Mac Mini)
