    IBM Omnibook 4100

    Hi,

    I have the above laptop sitting on my bench with a nailed HD. The laptop is a F1462W model which was supposed to come with a 4GB drive. However, the fitted (and nailed) drive is a 10.2GB IBM Travelstar. Now IBM won't tell me what the max size drive the BIOS will support is (they just tell me they only supply a 6.4GB....which i knew already!) and the smallest 2.5" HD from my supplier is a 15GB. Unfortunately its a Fujitsu (Spit!!) so i want to go with the IBM 20GB that they carry....but will it work ok in this laptop? From a few searches on the net i see people offering upto 40GB drives for this series of Omnibook, but not this actual F1462W model.

    What say ye oh great Windrivers masters...will thou 20 gigger do justly work upon this Omnibook yay?

    Oh...needeth speedy reply...have to order today...thankee!
