I've installed a 20GB (IBM DJSA-220) drive on my old 560Z. The trick is to fdisk
& format it on another system (desktop or laptop), and then install it on the
560Z. I bought mine new from Ebay (came to $104 shipped & insured). I sold the
laptop 6 months ago to my neighbor and he has nothing but good things to say
about the 20GB HD - i.e. fast access and very low noise levels. Good luck!
