Maximum Harddrive on a BE6 board

[Tim Cinder]

I have a BE6 motherboard with a PIII 450Mhz, running Win 2000. Does anyone know what the maximum size hard drive I will be able to use in this system? The Bios is updated.

Thank you

probably 120 gig.

...but at ATA33 speeds. An add-in controller card is bundled with retail WD and Maxtor drives of a certain size and larger-- 160GB, I think. You can get a good deal with a rebate at one of the large chain stores. I got a Promise TX-2 Ultra100 controller with my WD1600JB.
