Re: Disk Utility and 1TB hard disks
Hi, Disk Utility finished checking my big disk from my Panther partition. I don't know how long it took - I left my computer on all night - but it finished all right and found no problems. Thank you. Regards, Jörg.

The 10.5 Disk Utility has no problems with 1 TB drives. I have not tested it with 1.5 TB, but I expect it will work as 1 and 1.5 TB are the same series of drives.
