Replacing Hard Drive


Hi All,
I have an old p-100 machine that currently has a 1.2gb hdd, 32 mb ram. The bios is award. I have come across a 4.3gb seagate metalist hdd and would like to know if this will work in this machine, and if so....how do I do it? I have STFW and can't find a good answer for this and any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Dallam

if its a ide hard drive in a ide controlled motherboard inside, then it will work... swap out hard drives and go to work, or if its the only drive in there, you could probably fit both 1.2 and the 4.3 gig hard drive in there for more space...
