Sergio;
the link to the Hp vectra vl6/7 support page is :
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Resource.jsp?locale=en_US&t
askId=115&prodSeriesId=32846&prodTypeId=12454

cut and paste the entire URL.
I took a peek at the manual and the largest hard drive mentioned is 6.4 gig
There may be a bios flash to support larger drives, you will have to search
the site.
You can use a drive overlay program to use a larger drive if necessary.
Or you can  install a hard drive controller card that will support larger
drives.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Request of Information about motheboards


> I have a HP vectra VL6/7 series It's a pentium 266 MMx, I want to change
my hard drive (3 Gb) for a bigger one, I want one of 40Gb, how do I know if
my motherboard is going to support it?  Because someone told me that to
support big hard drives, I need a special kind of motherboard, is that true?
