Can anyone tell me if there is a hard drive size
limitation within NT4 Server? I want to install an
additional drive for data storage and want to know what
the max size is that will be recognized. Thanks!

For non-system, non-boot volumes you're only limited by your controller and
or system bios.

Also this may help.

Your BIOS or your hard drive controller might put
barriers in your way, but NT4 sure won't. I haven't
used any SCSI drives larger than 73 GB with NT4, but
I have used 200 GB and 250 GB IDE and SATA drives
with NT.
