This has been covered TONS of times in the Archives. Tim, I really suggest you read through the Archives before rehashing questions that have been covered soooo many times before. Also, go here - http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ Read it all. It will really help, it helped me in the beginning. But to answer your question, 9.5mm drives fit FINE in the 50/70 and 100/110, you just have to remove some small spacers from inside the machine, or you might stress the mb and break the RAM solder joints free. I see that: http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ listed in the footer is no longer there - does anyone know where that info went, or is it what is posted at the Adorable site? Can we get it removed from the message footer? I am willing to host an HTML FAQ with links to useful pages, but I don't have time to track them all down, so if people could reply to this thread with the more useful pages they've found THAT STILL EXIST, I'll start building a links page. Then again, if someone has already built a really good links page, we need it added to the footer of messages to the list.
