Many asked about that for different MBs…
How to check a mobo supports 48-bit LBA for BIOS & HDD controller? Nothing is mentioned in the specs nor in the BIOS update history…
The BOIS is 6.00 PG 29/08/2002. The latest BIOS version released just 1.5 months after the initial version & has no description about the issue.
I’m using a 500 GB PATA HDD as a single volume (no partitioning, just C:, NTFS). The Seagate ST3500833A is on IDE 1 as the master along with a 80 GB HDD as the slave. So far, about 106 GB/465 GB is used & no problem. Concerned when my usage goes beyond 128 GB or 137 GB boundary it results in data corruption.
XP Pro SP3 boots from the Seagate.
