G5 as as back up to the iMac?

I know this topic is pretty old for you guys, but if you could bare with me. I bought a used G5 about 2 years ago, just bought an iMAC. Is there any way to use the G5 as as back up to the iMAC and any new MAC devices?

Update

My apologies.

what you you mean "as backup"? You want to backup the iMac to the G5? Boot the G5 in target disk mode it will act like an external HD - AFAIK to do this you have to connect them via Firewire.

why is this not answerable? looks like machead provided an answer here..

This Original Question was very unclear about what David was asking. He didn't reply, but 4 days later he restated his Question. Neither of which are really "repair related" IMHO.

I agree with pollytintop on this. As long as it keeps his G5 out of the dumpster, it does follow the mission of ifixt. An answer has been provided and therefore should not be marked as not answerable.

I would say no you cant use it as a backup but if you find a way you should call a technician or tech support to help you.

Boot the G5 in target disk mode it will act like an external HD - AFAIK to do this you have to connect them both via Firewire - if your other Mac doesn't have Firewire you'll have to put the drive in an external USB case. Then sell the machine as is or for parts.

Take the HD out and put it in an external case. Then you can use TimeMachine or any 3rd party software you'd like. You could also purchase OS X server an run it.

The G5 tower can be networked with the iMac. If you are running PowerPC programs (in 32bit), you may even use it as part of a render farm (ie. with older versions of AfterEffects, FCP, or Compressor).

As stated by MacHead3, you can start the G5 Tower in target-mode and use its' drives as back-up storage. (That still seems like a really big external drive).

I have a mid 2011 imac 27" i5 but use my late 2005 G5 quad networked as both a back-up and spare. Firewire 800/400 connection may even be better given sufficient space. The iMac had a major issue with a faulty HDD but I enjoyed using the G5 again. Only trouble is the legacy applications are getting harder to find for PPC Leopard or Tiger. So it's even more important to keep a back-up of that too.
