I can't imagine that the bios wouldn't support it. I'd call the ibm 800
number to see if there isn't a new bios which would fix that, if indeed
there is a problem at all.
And an aside question: is it *really* worth an extra $247 for an extra 2G
of disk? I see from pricewatch recently that the 32G was $645 and the
30G was $398. Yes, the 32G is somewhat faster, but I can't quite see
the extra expenditure. Just a thought from my wallet, which got nervous
hearing of this. ;-)
