Hi all; I'm considering purchasing a 250GB USB 2.0 external drive for backups. I'm running XP Home on a Dell P4-1.8ghz. Now I know that there is a drive limit size of 137gb for internal drives, does this limit also extend to external usb drives? What should I look for in purchasing this? TIA. I'm currently using a 5 bay 250GB High-Rely Drive(www.high-rely.com) for backup on an XP system at work. I've yet to notice any limitations when it comes to size. I just plug her in and as far as the OS is concerned I have five 250gb drives installed. Hope this helps. Sarah |
