I just put a Maxtor DM+60 20GB HD in my U5... I booted off the CD-ROM (boot 
cdrom -s) and ran format and then wrote a new label... It worked great and the 
system is at least twice as fast as before...

I used the new ATA100 cable and jumpered the drive as master instead of using 
the existing cable, which uses cable select...

The U5 does support dual drives, although there are issues with the onboard 
CMD IDE controller when using both channels...
