Hi,

I have two Western Digital drives.  One is 40gig and
the other is 120gig.  I originally used the 40 as the
main drive and eventually switched to the 120 when I
got it because it was a hair faster.  I've used them
with Win98se for a couple of years with no problem. 
And actually have a dual-boot setup with WinXP now,
again with no problems.  Both times when I installed
them I just used the software that came with the
drives.
