Subject: Re: [LIB] Upgrades for CT110?

64MB total for sure!! Otherwise, 2k will run very slow!

Upgrade the HD at least to a 20GB HD!  The jump from one of those slower hard
drives to the latest is very significant, and you'll appreciate how snappy and
responsive it becomes.  

I'd recommend the latest Hitachi 7200rpm 60GB if you can get it, otherwise, a
5400rpm HD, then a 4200rpm HD.  But on a budget, any 40GB HD for about $100-120
is a great buy and will do very well in the Libretto 110.

After that, simply install w2k and off you go!  very easy and works well.

Oh, dont' forget that if you use a HD >8GB, you'll exceed the BIOS limit, and
you'll need to remember to partition around the 8.4GB limit to prevent your
data from being overwritten when the Libretto undergoes a hardware hibernate to
disk operation. 

See Libretto Mailing List for posts on this, but basically, you create at least
one primary partiton from the beginning of the HD to about 8Gb, then another
secondary partition after the 8.4GB limit (add a few dozen MB to be sure) to
the end of the HD.   

Of course, if you never initiate the libretto's hardware hibernate to disk and
only use the w2k's hibernate to disk (yes, these are two seperate things), then
you'll be fine.... until the day you accidentally do it!
