Could you confirm if the Configuration showed in the above links can be 
changed by 2 HDD instead of 1HDD & 1 DVD-WR.

I would like to change it using 1 HDD 40GB to 80 GB for Window$ and 
another HDD 100 GB for Linux Gentoo, plus an external USB DVD-WR. Is it 
possible?
Is it possible that system boot from a USB PENDRIVE connected? If so, my 
final configuration can be made as well.

It is because if I config and purchase my new LAPTOP Tecra M5 with 2 
HDD, one for Window$ and the second one for Linux Gentoo, It will be 
necessary to boot the system from another external devices like USB-DVD 
or USB-PENDRIVE, but It will be necessary to confirm if the BIOS for the 
TECRA M5 allow it.

All that I need to install Linux Gentoo is to boot with LIVE-CD and get 
network access through wireless or wired net devices. I can also boot 
from USB-Pendrive device if BIOS system allow it, so please confirm it.

Thanks in advance.
