[CUBE] Anyone try a larger drive than 120 GB in a cube?

Not unless it's an Oxford 922 ATA/100 FW case, a fairly new model. I 
think there were Oxford 911 ATA/100 FW cases to begin with from ADS 
that could see big drives. Lots of sources are still selling Oxford 911 
ATA/66 cases that can't see beyond 128 GB. But if you can find a friend 
who has any Mac with a PCI bus, you can put an ATA/100 PCI card in 
there for $75 and get your bigger HD partitioned as needed. but I've 
seen the aforementioned FW case for sale for as little as $56 on the 
web.

This explains why I was able to format and partition a 200 GB WD drive 
last week and then put it in my ADS Oxford 911 ATA/66 FW case and see 
it all.
