[newbie] Large Hard Drives

[John Richard Smith]

One thing I have been meaning to ask , now that large hard drives are 
becoming cheap enough, is how long does it take for bootups to complete 
the fsck tasks on say a 120 gig drive, with a modern AMD1800 Athlon, or 
a similar P4 processor.

Currently I have a 40gig drive, and usually when required it fsck's at 
least 3 of my partitions, I have about 7 partitions it likes to keep a 
track on. If I bought a 120gig drive to add as say a secondary drive 
would it take for ever to fsck on these bootups.
