Hello members! A couple of weeks ago i submitted a post about purchasing a massive storage drive 120 GBs to be exact, external USB 2.0/1.1. I have been awaiting a response from Soltek the manufacturer of my motherboard to find out if it would recognize in the most current BIOS a 102 GB drive. I got my answer this morning. According to them it will ONLY recognize a drive up to 32 GBs.
My question is does "modern" massive storage drives come with BIOS extension so that older MBs will recognize a drive as large as 120 GBs. ? If not then I will HAVE to resort to a CD-RW, but does the most current technology work appropriately with older MBs? I was thinking about the Plextor SCSI interface or the TDK veloCD. I could not find any research on this. Anyone have the answers or at LEAST the pointers to sites that will give me the conclusive info B4 I commit to an expense one way or the other? My MB is a Soltek SL67A-C i440bx chipset onboard Adaptec Ultra SCSI-2 AIX7880. I would prefer to utilize an external massive storage drive as opposed to a CD-RW but will settle if necessary. Any or all input would be appreciated. Thank you! Barry ~ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
