<br>
You didn't say what OS you are using. Possible with a Sawtooth is OS 8,6 <-><br>
<a href="http://10.4.11." target="_blank">10.4.11.</a> Means around 8 poss. used OS's!! Will make a diff. you'll<br>
understand. So important is first: "We know all about your Sawtooth" :-{()}<br>
to give the best help. So OS, RAM, HD('s), Video, Opt. dr's etc.<br>
<br>
Apple first introduced, speaking about G4 towers, LDS (and not LSD, haha!) =<br>
Large Disk Support = support 128 GB or larger per drive, with the QS 2002.<br>
<br>
In the meantime I would suggest thinking first about following with the<br>
Sawtooth: You can put 2 int. HD's to the int. HDB: Ultra ATA/66 (ATA-5) of:<br>
1) 128 GB (131,072 MB), without help.<br>
Or:<br>
2) Unlimited with Hard Drive SpeedTools (OS 9) and "High-cap" kext (OS X).<br>
Just make sure to place a partition break right at 131,072 MB.<br>
<br>
Using 128 GB+ HD's on the (slower) int. ODB is another joke/story!! But it<br>
works.<br>
<br>
Talking about all other poss. (PCI-cards, FireWire, etc.) will only make<br>
sense when we, at least, know more about your used OS (and perhaps about<br>
your plans to use the Sawtooth for?!?)<br>
<br>
HTH and greetings from a now very raining Amsterdam (NL),<br>
