Default DG965WH Hard drive

Looking at getting new SATA HD, is there a size limation for this
board, DG965WH?

I looked at Intel's web site, can find which Processors are
compatable, but didn't see anything about Hard drive size.

Some people say they have to F6 on install, and use "something"
(doesn't sound like they're installing a RAID driver), I'm not sure
what, when they went to a very large HD. I think they're talking about
1TB. I was looking at 750gb.

Thanks, Josh

I've used Seagate 1.5 TB drives with no problem. If you install XP,
you need the RAID drivers on the diskette in order to access the
SATA drives. Vista already has the needed drivers.

I'm not using RAID, so should't need the RAID drivers, correct?

Thanksk, Josh

The RAID drivers (poorly named, IMHO) also allow XP to use SATA drives.
You still need that diskette even if you're not using RAID.

Thanks, I forgot that I probably needed that when I installed XP.
