Hi all,

I'm looking for a bit of advice.

I was reading the QubIDE manual as I have the card, and was reading about
partition size limits. It seems up to 8 partitions of up to 256MB each is
the limit.

Is this true for all storage formats? Am I really only ever going to fully utilise a 2GB USB drive? No point going bigger? (Not that I'd ever use that much, ever, but if I want to start collecting and cataloging software, it's
possible.)

Using Q-emuLator 1.0 on Mac.

Dave

You can create up to 32 partitions per disc with the "Next" option of the Partition program. Only 8 can be active at the same time but they consume a lot of memory for the block tables.
Up to 65525 blocks for each partition.
If you want more MB's you must use a bigger block size but then wast more disk space with small files.
