I have been having problems with a 160gb SATA drive dropping out when
writing to it.
Today the Maxtor tech told me that Windows has a problem handling files over
1gb on SATA drives and that I should split the files to make them less than
1gb. The motherboard tech told me I had to partition my 160gb drive to make
it less than 137gb or I would have problems. What is the point of having a
big drive if I have to make it smaller and split files to 1gb file size.
Sounds like excuses to me.
Does anyone know the facts?
