Best Answer

NO.

After 10.6 there are no more PPC drivers, software, etc, that a PPC computer can access. 10.5 is the last upgrade you can get for a PPC computer.

In 10.5 or earlier, the Intel computer would only access the Intel drivers, core software, etc, from the installer DVD that are written for the Intel processor so it would not install any PPC software.

Can you install an Intel hard drive into an HP AMD laptop?

There is no such thing as an "Intel hard drive" or "AMD hard drive." The processor manufacturer, and even the CPU architecture, is irrelevant to hard drive compatibility. As long as the destination computer supports / uses the same connection as the intended hard drive, it can be used. Depending on the operating system installed on the drive (if any), it may or may not be usable after being transferred, so you should always be prepared for the necessity of reinstalling it.
