  Hi

  As usual the answer is it depends, there has been a number of =
questions about this over the last few months. My experience is that you =
can run larger disks, but recommend you run Sol 8 as there were limits =
to earlier versions. There may still be limits with 8, but not as =
limiting as 6 & 7. You should be ok with 7 for 20Gb.

    Hello,

    Is it possible to put in any size IDE hard drive in a Sun Ultra 5 =
basically or not?  I guess I wouldn't see a problem, but i'm also not a =
complete expert on the matter.  Before I buy one, I wanted to check on =
it.

    For example, could I put a 20 GB Western Digital 7200 rpm IDE drive =
in there with out a problem? =20

    Thanks!
