Now, before David jumps on me with his RED TYPE OF DEATH, I know that the 4100 does not support drives > 137 GB. However, I can get Seagate 160 GB drives for the same price as the 120's. I am assuming that if I get the 160 GB drives that the 4100 will format and run them as 137 GB, thus giving me an extra 17 GB per drive which would be nice. My question is will there be any ill effect on perrformance or data corruption issues by using the 160 GB drives? Thanks all!
