Well as long as the drive is 9.5mm in height it'll physically fit (just make sure you can pretty much drop it into the slot and it'll go in ... you may need to remove some spacers from the bottom of the drive bay as there IS some variability in height even amongst 9.5mm hard drives, some of which are in fact 9.55mm) ... the only other complication you will run into with drives larger than 8.4GB is that the Libretto's BIOS only sees 8.4GB so you'll need a BIOS drive overlay so that the Libretto can see the rest of the drive ... look in the archives for David's link to EZ-Drive (in case you've not already got it) as well as for numerous discussions on the topic!
