Hi Rich,
I have 3 harddisks in my Digital Audio: 2 are 3,5" and 1 is
2,5" (connected with an adapter). So having several HDs is no problem.
But could someone in the know post a clear answer to this question: Do
large HDs work in the Digital Audio, with Tiger and/or Leopard? I’m
still doubtful whether creating partitions smaller than 128GB is
enough to make such HDs work.
I have about 2Tb in my DA. Two drives are SATA with a PCI SATA controller.
You can't just create small partitions. On a stock DA it will only
recognize the FIRST 128Gb on the HD regardless of partitioning. Using
either of the work arounds you can either make one 128Gb partition and
make the rest a single large partition or you can make it one large
partition.
Or you can look into a used QuickSilver 2002 or MDD and have native
large drive support built in
