No ! Bioses above 1.4X (TP 750 family) should be good for 8.4Gig
BUT  The older HD's in the TP defaulted to master mode with NO jumper, new
ones need a jumper
or a bit of solder across the pins to look the same.
Or was it the other way around (grin)
This was mentioned some time ago ......somewhere in the archieves .
IBM's mess of a web page does give pinouts for the HD's . Anything above the
540 was/is
slightly different.
