Title: Has anyone tried...a 250GB drive?
Post by: markbowen on September 17, 2007, 10:29:48 AM
I did not even know they made a drive larger than 160GB that wasn't SATA, but apparently they do:

Is there any reason this shouldn't work in a DMS with the same Linux kernel that Sam used to get the 160's working?

Just that they say it's out of stock ;)

There's no reason I know of that any drive wouldn't work with that kernel so long as it's an ATA drive.
