Hi Chris!

You can use all 2.5" disks with a height up to 9.5 mm.

Currently 20GB disks from IBM, Toshiba and other manufaturers are available.
Very soon a new 30 GB disk from Toshiba will be available.

If the new disk is bigger than 8 GB, which is the limit of the BIOS, you
must use an operating system which does not use BIOS for disk access. But
that is not a problem, use WinNT, Win2000 or Linux and forget the other
"toys" starting with a "9" in front...

I'm using Win2000 on a Lib110 with a 20GB IBM disk - it runs perfectly.

There is only one small hurdle: find a correct way to partition a disk, see
other postings for this topic.

Gerhard
