That is true, but some of the Macs on this network are older Macs running System 7.1. I have found that when they access a volume via AppleTalk that are several GB that the sizes are not properly reported or handled. For that reason I will break up the drive. It doesn't really bother me because I can put specific types of data on each drive for better organization. So this means that pretty much any EIDE drive will work? ;) Matt -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
