I am 99% sure even the Libretto 110 won't support
>137GB. It was released in 1998 and I don't think
ATA/66 was even available then, let alone support for
huge drives. The best you could do with a 160GB drive
would be put it in a USB case, get a USB 2.0 card, and
find a convenient way to get the extra power that the
USB card won't supply.

Depends on the model. Older ones <L110 have ISA
buses, some of the
newer
ones have faster interfaces that support UDMA
connections. Anyways, as
long as
the HD can max out any interface, that's a good thing.
It'll mean that
you
have no trouble at all keeping the Libretto running as
fast as it can
go.
