I've been wondering about this issue myself as I consider buying some older hardware to put into use as a server. Researching the mobos can be tedious and still not turn up results. If one *did* get a mobo whose onboard IDE controller couldn't handle >137GB drives, could that problem be solved by installing a separate PCI EIDE or SATA controller? Would large drives installed on that controller work OK? -- eq72521 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eq72521's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1512 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22506 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
