Can you use a 300GB SATA drive (one partition) with an Asus A8V motherboard?
If not, what is the largest drive/partition available to an A8V?

I was perusing the Asus Web site and noticed that the A8N-SLI Deluxe
supports SATA 3Gb/s. However, I don't believe this motherboard is currently
available.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, your HD should be ok, make sure that if you've XP then you must have at
least SP1 installed....

Would it also work with Windows 2000?
