Hard Disk Drive Upgrades
Hard disk drives have higher capacities and operate at much faster speeds than floppy disk drives and CD-
ROM drives. Enhanced IDE drives provide a reliable, fast, and cost-effective mass storage solution in the
PC storage industry. The high speed transfer modes supported are UltraATA/100 up to 100MB/sec and
PIO mode 4 up to 16.6MB/sec. The Notebook PC comes with a removable 2.5” (6.35cm) wide and .374”
(.95cm) high UltraATA/100/66 IDE hard disk drive with current capacities up to 80GB. Current IDE hard
drives support S.M.A.R.T. (Self Monitoring and Reporting Technology) to detect hard disk errors or
failures before they happen. Visit an authorized service center or retailer for information on upgrades.
IMPORTANT! Poor handling of the Notebook PC may damage the hard disk drive.
Handle the Notebook PC gently and keep it away from static electricity and strong
vibrations or impact. The hard disk drive is the most delicate component and will
likely be the first or only component that is damaged if the Notebook PC is dropped.
