I have 4 hardrives ........1 20 gig on which my OS and programs reside(XP
professional) and 3 160 gig 7200 rpm drives............
the following is what the system information says about them...it sees only
128 gig.....i have been told two different things....1. that the difference
between 128 and 160 is taken up with formatting the drive
(this is by the people who built the system for me) and then from someone
else, that without an ATA-133 controller(which I don;t have) the older
controllers will only see 128 gigs..............which one is true, does
anyone know. I sure would hate to not have all the gigs available that i
have on the drives........especially since one of them is filling up
fast............
thanks..........
