Well, I was thinking about a 50-pin hard disc so I don't need any adapter.
4 gb the maximum size for a partition? I don't care if I have to create several partitions.
Thank you.
4GB is the limit for the
disc. Partition size does not matter. You cannot make multiple 4GB partitions and expect them to be working. They will appear to work at the beginning, but sooner or later they will corrupt each other because they all share the same 4GB of the drive.
The 4GB limit applies to IDE and to the file system delivered with WB 3.1.
In combination with the CybSCSI MK2 PFS3 would be ideal. This combnation has no limits (except the 100 GB partiton size limit of PFS3). You can even make one single partition which covers the entire drive (up to 100 GB).
For IDE you additionally need new IDE drivers, not only a new file system.
