What's The Max HDD Size?
Hi All,
I have an ASUS A7A266-E motherboard, with an Athlon XP 1800+. I currently have two HDDs - one at 60GB and one at 80GB. I am buying a Western Digital 200GB drive from a mate at work, but I am worried that my board won't recognise it. I have checked ASUS's website, but it doesn't say what the maximum HDD size is.
Anybody got any ideas?
Thanks
Daniel

Thanks for the replies guys.
The drive is an ATA 100 EIDE drive, so I assume it will work? Oh well, I'll find out on Monday when I pick it up!
Thanks again

At the moment the biggest you can buy is 400gb from hitachi.
they are holding back all the bigger drives. i know they have developed a 800gb drive, but dont seem to think there is a market for it yet
