Today we're upgrading a 2.0 Ghz Dual Processor Power Mac G5 with an m.2 SSD, and maxing out the RAM at 8 GB. We'll tear it down a bit and check out the internals, replace the battery, and talk a little bit about why this computer is so cool (not literally of course - it runs hot as crap).
We may or may not run into a few problems with the m.2 to SATA adapter, or SSDs in general, though in the end I still really love this beautiful but inefficient machine.
