I'm running Win 2k Pro, SP4, With all the updates from Microsoft. Currently
I have three hard drives connected. A 74 GB WD Raptor HD, which reads
correctly, and two Hitachi 250 GB HDs that read incorrectly. One of them I
formatted on this computer, it reads as being only 128 GB. The other I had
previously formatted on another computer and put data on it. When I try and
assign a drive letter to the previously formatted HD (which is NTFS) through
disk manager, there is an X through "Disk 2" and it says "Disk unreadable."
My guess is that windows 2000 doesn't like HDs that are bigger than 128 mb?
Which would explain why it would only format the 250 to 128, and why it wont
read the 250 GB HD that has 250 GB formatted. So how do I fix this?
