	David,
	
	if OBP is up-to-date as you say, the machine should run just fine off of
	80GB drives (I'm running 80GB drives in an Ultra10 which is basically
	the same hardware). I understand that the physical limit is somewhere in
	the 150GB range (forgot the actual number) so a max. drive size of 120GB
	should render you no unallocated disk space.
	
	Sure makes a nice file server for the home ;)
	
	Regards,
	
	Jerry
