Maximum / largest hard disk size supported

A

Alvyn

Hi,

Anyone can advise what is the maximum partition that can
be supported under Windows 2000 / Windows 2003 Server ?

I tried using a 160GB hard disk, but only managed to
achieve 120GB of available space.

Any ideas any way to achieve the full 160GB or 200GB in
one single partition ?

Thanks

separate drivers disk from the supplier get past the 120G
limit!

You probably need a BIOS upgrade.
I'm running 5 250 gig hard drives with Windows 2000/SP3 and the EnableBigLBA
registry mod (Google for it).
