Thanks. Nice looking little app. Have you (or others) used it when the drive is already partitioned? My first 2 OS X partitions are within the 128GB limit. I am currently running off a Sonnet Trio ATA133/FW/USB which permits lba48, but I wanted to move my 500GB drive to the onboard ATA channel, to see if I get better DVD Player performance. I will also be moving the drive to my incoming Digital Audio Dual 533, and hope I can perform the Overdrive mod and have no issues with my 500GB drive that is already partitioned ... what do you think? Perhaps I should also install my old 80GB as a buffer drive, since I may need to boot into OS 9 (for Firmware Updates only) ... or is that somewhat forbidden after >128GB drives are installed?
