Now, I have just picked up an almost-new 120gb Maxtor DaimondMax Plus 9
ATA/133 HD for about $15US.
Can this be used as a direct replacement of the factory 6gb IDE, or will
I need an ATA/133 controller card? Or do I run afoul of the supposed the
slave-drive size limit?
Yes, you can use it without any issues. The size limit is for the IDE
subsystem as a whole.
The slave IDE drive issue on rev 1 B&W's is there regardless of the size
of the drive. It's not a size problem for a slave drive, it's the fact
that a slave drive is present at all.
