I realise this is legacy, but what is the difference when you use one or the other? I don't want to get bitten by some interfering bug when I go to change the array later (for instance, by adding more drives to expand the array) because I chose one or the other, I'd rather just set it the best way right off and have a smoother upgrade later.<BR /> Fri, 10 Jul 2009 17:58:20 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/windows-server-2003/boot-partition-limit/m-p/4457685#M5655 Mistoffeles 2009-07-10T17:58:20Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/windows-server-2003/boot-partition-limit/m-p/4457686#M5656 This option specifies number of sectors per track - 63 or 32 sectors.<BR />With MaxBoot disable you can have max logical drive size 502 Gb, with MaxBoot enable you can reach 2 Tb or even more - depends on OS<BR />Historically this settings related to Windows NT 4 limitation<BR /><A href="http://www.windowsnetworking.com/kbase/WindowsTips/WindowsNT/AdminTips/Installation/Int13x86bootlimitationandCpartition.html" target="_blank">http://www.windowsnetworking.com/kbase/WindowsTips/WindowsNT/AdminTips/Installation/Int13x86bootlimitationandCpartition.html</A> Sat, 11 Jul 2009 07:06:00 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/windows-server-2003/boot-partition-limit/m-p/4457686#M5656 Igor Karasik 2009-07-11T07:06:00Z
