G'day

I presently own a power mac G5 2.5ghz. I am planning to expand to a Mac Pro within the next year, (this is an important part of my inquiry).

I want to get two new large HD's for my current G5 that I could later transfer to the Mac Pro once I purchase it.

I am looking at 2-750GB internal HD's from Amazon but I am unsure where they would be compatible in both machines? Here is the link to amazon

http://www.amazon.com/Seagate-ST3750640AS-RK-750GB-Internal-SATA-16MB/dp/B000JDHS5I/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-8359943-0483224?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1180366811&sr=8-1

Could someone please tell me if this is what I am looking for, or could someone point me in the right direction to find a site that clearly and simply defines compatibility between drives and computers?

Thanks Shane

    The Mac Pro takes SATA drives, so yes those will work just fine. I have all 4 drive bays full on mine, 1 system drive, 1 personal drive, and 2 in a RAID configuration for my business pictures. (To cut down on picture losses.)
