The bigger drive is NOT a waste of money...you'll just need to partition the drive into volumes that your OS WILL recognize...it's really no different than what you would need to do when installing OS X (you don't say which OS you're running), which, on older machines, required being installed in the first 8 Gb of drive space. In my case, that meant partitioning the drive into a 7.5 Gb volume for the install and a 110 Gb+ volume for everything else. When it comes to drives, BIGGER is NEVER a waste of money...8-)From what I understood ATA66 has a limit of 128GB even if partitioned?
