Hi, can you give detail about your motherboard. because without knowing which motherboard you use it's hard to say exact what hard drive size it can support.

actually i have a custom board of compaq but it is exactly similar to intel 810e board

What RPM is your old 20 GB drive? Are you going to replace it or add another 40/80 GB along with it?

For replacing it, I dont think there will be any problem having hard drive of latest RPM available. It should work perfectly.
