This drive will should work fine in your 100ct. You do not really need a drive overlay for Windows 98 to see the whole drive however. I have installed the 100GB version of this drive in a Libretto without a drive overlay and it works fine. I do not know about Linux. A week or so ago I posted a method which you can use to set up your Libretto Drive without an overlay that I learned all the steps from this site. : ) Good Luck!

I need a bigger HD, 20, 40 or maybe 60GB. Who is selling them at a reasonable price, is reputable, and up to what physical dementions can the 110CT handle? 2.5 9.5mm standard. www.newegg.com Pretty much any ATA 2.9 will work. Above 120GB, forget it because the BIOS/etc. probably won't work with the HD. You may need to use a drive overlay program such as EZ Drive linked on my site, or an OS that supports larger HDs if you use a modern, larger HD. (I've dropped in a 100GB before and it works with a drive overlay program.) 2. Can I increase the memory from 32.0MB? Yes. 64MB max. Buy the RAM module off ebay.com, impactcomputers.com or anywhere you can find it. http://www.impactcomputers.com/toshiba-libretto-110ct-parts-memory.html 3. Can I safely overclock the 110CT? Where can the how-to be found? See my site, overclocking section. 266mhz at the most from 233mhz, but for a l110, it's almost not worth the trouble for the 33mhz difference. 4. Can I upgrade to WinXP without too much slowdown? not recommended although others have done it - it's reallly slow vs. Windows 2000 or 98. otherwise, you'll have to take out/turn off as many things as possible to get it to run well. 5. Can I upgrade to Linux (what flavour) whithout too much slowdown? see libretto mailing list archives - lots of flavors, lots of users with differing experiences. 6. Can I run an app to give me multiple OS options at boot? What app is recomended? xosl is one that works for free. system commander is another. Partition Magic has a boot program as well. They all work fine. I'm simply using the DOS PQBoot program that is part of partition magic -- not a boot menu, but simply a boot partition selector from DOS. 7.
