Hoping to find out the maximum size and other relevant info to replace HDD.
Motherboard-Gigabyte BX2000
Chipset-i440BX
Bios-Award V4.51PG 19th July 1999
I think the Bios date is the crucial bit and I think I may be restricted to about 30Gb. Have googled for Bios updates and failed, Award having been taken over by someone else. Also odd that the Bios dates to about 5 months after I bought the unit.
Secondly, My existing HDD, I have 2 Fujitsi MPD3108AT HDs, primary master and primary slave. obviously I need the same interface which I think is ATA/66. My handbook says under IDE ports:
2 Ultra DMA/33 bus master IDE channels. Support mode 3,4 IDE & ATAPI cd-rom
Any help regarding HD size and make/model/type required would be great.
Thanks for looking
Tim
