    I would like to replace the existing 2OGB drive in the Inspiron 8100 with a 60-80 GB drive. It seems there are lots of HD choices but vendors I have contacted either can't or won't tell me which one fits, or how to proceed. Some have said the 8100 is architecture-limited to a 20GB drive. The computer is only used as the family photo viewer and music manager, so memory is its only issue, otherwise it performs beautifully.

    Thanks for any help.

    Paul
