    Question MS8137C+ hard drive size limit?

    Hi all, i'm just wondering if anyone knows if there's any limit in what hard drive sizes one can use with the Matsonic MS8137C+ motherboard? At the moment i have an 120GB hard drive, but it would be nice to know if it's possible to install a hard drive that is 400GB.

    Thanks in advance
    / Maria

    Check the documentation for your board. If it supports 48 bit LBA, you can use a 400 GB drive with a single partition, otherwise, you are limited to 160 GB partitions.
