Thanks to the multiple people who responded. The overwhelming majority opinion
was that this could be done without any issues.

Thanks again,

Original question below.

Hello,

Is it possible to replace the standard 20GB HD in a Blade 100 with a non-Sun HD
(e.g. a Seagate 80GB Fireball drive) and have the system boot off of it? I know
in the past Sun has occasionally inserted a firmware chip onto their HD so that
you could only boot from a Sun HD. Is this true with the IDE drives on a Blade
100?

Thanks,
Tom
