If deciding on whether or not to go for a new larger drive like the one seen there the 20gb will still have enough room for any Linux distro since that OS uses less drive space as a rule over Windows. 8gb is a good round figure for ubuntu and other large distros and could easily go on a 4-5gb root leaving 1-1.5gb for the swap.
WD drives are backward compatible to ATA33/66 so there's no worry about a new larger drive not working. With older 95 systems enabling lba support was needed in the bios since no one saw drives over 16gb at that time.
