The largest 2.5" drives around, unless something's come out very
recently, is 120GB.

Here's a reliable vendor:

Both Hitachi and Seagate have 160GB 2.5" drives now.

In ATA or only SATA? (No, wait. I can look. Just musing aloud...)

Ah, okay. I had found some >120 before, but only SATA so I neglected
them responding to the OP's PowerBook query. Should've looked harder.
