It could be that the only drive that has this limitation then is a 2GB IBM? or Toshiba? HD that they substituted for the 1.6GB HD after they ran out of them, and that the BIOS limitation is keyed into just this HD. They never though we'd drop in our own HDs =), so they never bothered to lock out the other models/brands. --- David Nedved <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2001 16:46:26 -0400 > From: David Nedved <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: Lost hibernate on 70CT > > No, you're not the only one... > > I've tried every BIOS version on the 70ct, and I haven't personally > seen ANY limit on drive size other than the famous 8GB limit. > > David > > On Thu, Jul 26, 2001 at 01:45:43PM -0700, Trevor Morgan wrote: > > Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2001 21:38:40 +0100 > > From: "Trevor Morgan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Subject: Re: Lost hibernate on 70CT > > > > Hi most puzzled I have just fitted a 2.1g Toshiba hard drive to a lib 70. > > Before I fitted the drive I upgraded the BIOS to v6.4 from 6.2.
