yes
you may have to change a jumper on the drive as detailed in
the (drive's) manual

You must have an OS that supports >128GB. WinXP (SP2), Win2K (SP4), and
it might require a simple registry entry change.

No SATA drive now made can exceed the SATA150 interface speed, so you
won't lose anything if you have to jumper the drive to SATA150, as kony
mentioned.
