My 7 yr old Toshiba laptop has a 60GB HDD.
I'm thinking of upgrading to a 320GB as i use it a lot more now.
Will the bios see it & whats the max size with XP?
Cost will be just the price of the HDD.
And will ghost over everything from old to new HDD.

Any thoughts?

Off the top of my head, I believe you can go up to 2 TB with XP, though it may be larger than that, as well. 320GB will certainly do :thumb:

I have XP installed on a swappable 1Gb drive and that installation sees, reads and writes to another 2Tb disk so I don't think you'll have any probs.
