Depending on your computer's BIOS, it might support or not a 7200RPM hard disk drive.

Usually a Pentium 3 should support 7200RPM hard disks.

I personally own a 800MHz Pentium 3 with a 160GB ATA hard drive and it worked without updating the BIOS(last updated in February 2000).

So, a Pentium 3 should support newer hard drives but make sure your BIOS is at least from 1999 or 2000 since I don't think a 1995 or 1996 BIOS can handle a 7200RPM hard drive.
