[CUBE] Yes It Works! Anyone try a larger drive than 120 GB in a cube?

No problems. It's still empty. But I see all 4 partitions and can't 
imagine what would become a problem. I set up 20GB for OS X, 17.7GB for 
9 (that's the minimum partition size allowed), 76GB and 127.5GB for the 
rest. I partitioned on an ATA/100 bus of my dual 867 MDD not ATA/133. I 
believe how you partition it on what bus does not matter and anyone who 
wants to put a bigger drive inside should feel safe in doing so. You 
just can't make any partitions bigger than 128GB. Simple as that.

This 233GB (net) drive just looks like 4 smaller drives on the inside.
