Hi.
Does have an answer to the following?...
Model #: VL.6./350 Series 8DT
Product #: D5881A #ABH
Serial #: FR91215883
Mainboard: "BETTY"
BIOS version: HN 02.04 US
BIOS date: 04/01/99
Problem: I want to replace the hard disk with a bigger one.
Does this BIOS have an LBA limitation? (typically <= 137 GB)
I'm thinking of getting a 160 GB drive, but don't want to be stuck
with it, should the BIOS reject it. And I don't really feel like
buying a Promise IDE controller either...
If it _is_ limited, is there an (unofficial?) patch available
somewhere?
Thanks!
M.T.
PS: If replying by email, replace the "5" 's by "6" 's in address.
