Hi Listers,

J.C.: I have an external FW 400 enclosure (NOT oxford chipset based), and my Cube sees a 160Gb Samsung HDD that is sitting inside. So I guess that will depend on the chipset the hardware uses. Just my 0,02¤.

I know that the max size for an internal disk is ~120GB (I currently
have 80GB 7200RPM), but does that limit extend to externally attached
FireWire drives?  Can a single external FireWire drive exceed 120GB? 

I'm thinking about getting one of those new 1TB LaCie drives.

Will I have chop it up into 120GB logical drives?  Will the Cube
recognize the whole thing that way?
