I had a Satellite Pro 420 and had the same problem with the limited hard drive
space. The nice thing about the Satellite Pro is that the hard drive port is in
the front of the box. I bought another hard drive and put all my work-related
stuff on it. When I wanted to go non-secure, I just powered down and swapped
the drives like floppies. Additionally, the new drive is 3.2GB so a
Win95/NT/Linux partition worked comfortably.
