The 5100 came with 40 GB as standard but on some higher end models, came with 160 GB, since you have Windows XP with service pack 2. There should be no reason why you cannot stuff it with as much as you want. The only other thing you might want to consider doing is a BIOS update from HP support. I'll give you the link below, just make sure when you do a BIOS update that there are no power outages or you have a direct on battery backup, a bad bios update will turn your computer into a paperweight. Your memory and operating system will support a large hard drive though.
