[TP701C] Maximum supported harddisk capacity ?

[Tan Soo Guan <sgtan@cyberway.com.sg>]

Hi,

  I'm new to this mailing list and I guess I should introduce myself.
My name is Soo Guan and I'm from Singapore. I've recently bought a
two-and-a-half-year-old second-hand ThinkPad 701C for S$600 with the
following configuration:

  It's a DX2-50 with 20MB RAM, 360MB HD, port replicator II and no
modem. I'm currently running Win 95 on it with Microsoft Office 95
installed with only about 100MB space left.

  I have a few questions for the group with regards to this machine :

	- What is the maximum supported harddisk capicity for this
          machine without using any special software drivers ?
          (I was told by the service techincian from IBM that it's 810MB 
	  but according to Craig's IBM Butterfly Page at          
http://www-nrg.ee.lbl.gov/leres/butterfly/ the maximum          
supported is 4GB.)

        - Anyone had any experience installing IBM DTNA 22160
2160MB           HDD into a TP701C ? (I saw a shop in Singapore selling
it for
          about US$250/=) 

	- My NiCad battery pack only lasts about 20 minutes after a full
          charge and I think it has reached it useful lifespan. Anyone
          knows whether IBM's 3 year international warranty includes the
          battery ?

   Many thanks !
