Whoa!!
I'm on the verge of purchasing a 20 gig TravelStar HD from
CompUSA's fire sales (is $99 a good price?) this month for my OS 8.1
PB 190. I assumed there wouldn't be a installation problem; that any
standard 2.5" ATA/IDE drive would do the job without any
complications. Is my concern just jumping the gun or are there issues
I should consider first?
Just a novice.
