I looked in a couple of german installation manuals, but didn't find
anthing about the size of a HD. I'll look further, and if I find
something, I'll report.

No new EIDE harddisks are available anymore. You would have to resort to
a used one, and hope for the best. Used IDE HD's are available here.
