Hard drive capacity for Compaq 5147 by
HedgeSlammer
What is the maximum hard drive size recognized by an old Compaq 5147?
I don't suppose the mobo supports ATA drives, does it?
There is currently an 8 Gig drive in the owner's machine and I have not
actually seen the machine.
TIA

Salem Farm & Garden
I have an Armada 7360 with a 4 gig hard drive and would like to get up to
about 12 gig but the HP site does not give the maximum hard drive size. I'd
just replace it but my employees who are mechanics use it and I don't want
them ruining something newer.
