HI All
Office works is selling a Maxtor 80GB Retail Hard Drive Kit for $149
with Installation instructions for DIY. It has an Ultra ATA/133
interfacing.
I was wondering, If I bought something like this could I install it on
my Linux 2.3
GB and if so how like can I just follow th instructions. As in would I
piggy back it or would I remove the other one and replace it and would I
need to reinstall Knoppix or what. Or is it just beyond my means and
would I need to take the box into Computerbank and get them to do it and
can they deal with Maxtor. I don't necessarily want 80GB, 20GB would be
plenty I was reading the Catalogue and saw this one and thought it a
good price.
I think this is the site for more info

Of course other considerations are it is a Pentium 199MHz, Linux, using
reiserfs, kde 3.1.5,
i586 with 128MB (PC 133 I think) SDRAM, Release 2.4.22-xfs and would you
need to change any of that?
thanks
Avery
