Question for those of you who have run into this.

XP has a limitation of 137gb for hard drives pre service pack one. My edition of XP is not the one with SP1 bundled into it. I am thinking of buying a 250gb drive.

Question: Is the 137gb limit the limit to the entire drive size that XP sees or is it the limit for partitions that XP can create?


From what I've read it looks like that's the max size drive it sees and not just the partitions. Just looking for conformation.
