Please tell me what is the biggest drive i can jam on the snapserver 1000 for a single disk operation and what is the ATA that I should get.

but it is weird that the 120 GB will work thinking its a 30GB but I can't expand it.
so maybe if we can get our hands on the image of a 120GB my 120GB ATA 133 will work ?

thank you.
I can only talk from my experience with Snap1000 20gb. The biggest HD I was able to use successfully were two WD200JBs (did not have anything bigger than that on hands). Maxtor 200gb ATA133 did not work. Non of ATA133 disks worked.
I can not explain why your 120gb clonned into 30gb disk booted up but freezed on reinit. My ATA133s would not boot up at all. Different bios or system?
