You can use any slimline (12 mm thick) 2.5-inch IDE hard drive with the
365X/XD and the latest BIOS. There may be an issue with the screw holes
for the small metal bracket that holds the drive in place. Not all drives
have the holes in the same place.
If you don't have the latest BIOS, you can do a flash upgrade in about
three minutes.
