The size limit seems to only come into play with regards to the SCSI disk mode.
I recently put a 10 gb in my 2400 and partioned it into three sections. The small sections house only OS 9.1 and OS 8.6 OS's The third section holds all the other files(applications games etc.) I have had no problems with the SCSI disk mode when I use it. The 4 gb number seems to be the limit if you want to use SCSI disk mode. Anybody tried to use it with anything larger than 4GB partion --- Andy Nicholl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > This posting just reminded me that I meant to ask > you, the experts:- > > What is the situation with upgrading hard drives on > the 2400c?
