Comment from another GLOD-victim: if you like your 2400 and intend to keep it - by all means also have a bigger drive installed.
Shortly after DTT replaced my board my HD gave up. Larry (thanks again!) was nice enough to let me have his stock drive, and I installed it myself (not such a big deal if you're methodical and have taken things apart before). But what I should have done is have DTT install a bigger drive or install one myself. If you plan to part with your 2400 in any case it's a different story, but then replacing the board may not be feasible. So there... *g* -tobias.
