New Tablet PC hard disk and using RIShttp://blogs.msdn.com/calvin_hsia/archive/2005/07/04/435550.aspxMy 3 year old Acer TravelMate 100 TabletPC hard disk (20G) was dying. It has served me well as a portable machine. I love the tablet features and the small size. It was one of the original prototype tablets that I started using about 6 months before TabletPCsen-USCommunityServer 2.1 SP1 (Build: 61025.2)re: New Tablet PC hard disk and using RIShttp://blogs.msdn.com/calvin_hsia/archive/2005/07/04/435550.aspx#435566Tue, 05 Jul 2005 08:02:24 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:435566MikeRIS is a part of Windows Server so anyone that has a server with Windows can use RIS. The only problem with RIS is that it erases everyting on the hard disk.New Tablet PC hard disk and using RIShttp://blogs.msdn.com/calvin_hsia/archive/2005/07/04/435550.aspx#435602Tue, 05 Jul 2005 09:52:26 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:435602Lockergnome's Hardware HelpI guess the reasons behind buying a tablet just continue to mount.

My Acer 102 TabletPC hard disk just died and was thinking about buying new one. Acer Repair Center here in Sydney quote me today $AUS290 for 20Gb replacement. I can get 60Gb 5K rpm for about $AUS120. Wasn't sure if it's a standard 2.5&quot; hard disk thought and funny enough can't get answer from Acer. So I did Google search 'acer travelmate tablet pc hard disk' and your blog came up. Thanks! I'm ordering new HD today. Interesting comment about RIS. I shall try - don't know exactly how but will find out. I had TabletPC in repair 3 times over the last 3yrs and had to image it every time. The problem is that original CDs are old and then OS downloads all patches including 100Mb SP2. Takes ages. I got MSDN and latest TabletPC OS so network installation would save so much efforts. Somehow that never came to my mind ... too much work I guess. Thanks for sharing your experience!
