Re: need advice on seeing 250GB drive



Here's the specs on the box:
Its an Athlon running at 850 Mhz, Windows XP Professional SP2, 1.152 Gigs of
memory.
Mobo: Board: 8363-686A(KT7A,KT7A-RAID v0.5)
Bus Clock: 100 megahertz
BIOS: Award Software International, Inc. 6.00 PG 07/05/2001

It looks like we are down to either a controller card, or
an external USB enclosure. I think the usb solution would
be the easiest, but then he has to deal with usb speeds, etc.

Thanks for all the input so far.

Hi,
My buddy bought a 250GB drive and put it in as a slave in an older athlon
1G system.
Windows only sees 130 GB.
Is a eide controller card the answer?
Thanks,
Mike
