Yes it will work. You can use hard disks bigger than 4GB if you want, as long as you either have software support for >4GB disks or only use the first 4GB.

 2.5" hds maded by IBM (brand can vary: IBM, Toshiba or even Apple, they are all the same) works great in A600/1200!  

 Last week I tried a 6.5 Gb IBM hd on my dusty A600 (ks 37300!) and hdtoolbox (2.1!) recognises it in the 1st try!

 And I never got a single problem with those winchesters! :quickdraw:
Goodbye people.

I\'ll pop on from time to time, RL is acting up.
