Hi,
I use a VB601V Board with Bios FQ612. Who knows the biggest size of a
harddisk that I can use.
Regards

Oops. I already answered this at the "Posting not allowed?" thread.
Anyway, to answer your question, the QF612 BIOS probably supports only up
to 32 GB, but there is a beta (unsupported) BIOS QF4129 that supports
above 65 GB, which I take to mean up to 137 GB. This is only for PCB
1.4, which I believe you have, since you are already using QF612.

believe.

I'll give the beta Bios a try and do some tests. But i prefer to buy an
IDE-card to controll the drives. That machine should be a backup in a
homenetwork with 5 machines.

Thank you very much, Alex.
