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 |

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. Tom Lake |

DG965WH Hard drive
I'm not using RAID, so should't need the RAID drivers, correct?

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