From the FWIW department. Things keep progressing.

It's really not all that badly priced at $400. $.40 per gigabyte is just a bit above the average.

I remember in 1988 debating whether or not I needed a hard drive for my Mac 512K, and if so whether it should their 5 MB standard or their new 20 MB model. IIRC, the 20 MB model was several was around $400 so I decided to wait until the cost was under $10 per meg. Now, where'd I put my Z-89?...

Does WIndows Vista/XP have disk size format limitations anymore????

True and corrected.

I'm 99% sure that the partition size limitations are not an issue with modern formats (ntfs, ext3, etc.).

I just added a 80 gig, with Xp had to partion to 40,000 max with ntfs

Added??? What was your original size. Doesnt seem right the Xp would only handle 40gig.

I dont know the actual limits, but 40 gig?

I had a 40 and didn't remove it , just put in an additional 80 gig and had to partition that into two 40's

If NTFS is properly used the Volume limits are as follows
Theoretical: 2^64 clusters Actual: 2^32 clusters
This means that XP with NTFS has a practical Volume limitation which is 16 x the theoretical capacity of FAT32, significantly higher than the practical limit of 32 GB imposed on FAT32 format volumes.
Something does not add up BB.

Thanks. That could be, I just followed the directions since i'm not a puter geek in that area and partioned it accordingly. But Xp did tell me to partition it. I didn't know how to do it otherwise.

Are you networked with a computer that has Win 98 or some other FAT XX drives on it?

Could be the Install recommended what works in your neighborhood - for others to see your mounted or shared drives.

No , it is a straight XP install with no net. IT does have an older MB, 4 or 5 years I think
