HP E60

[asher johnson]

I took at look at the forum and I think I have my answer but I've had different results to other people so i'll ask anyway...
I tried to use a 250GB drive for storage in our HP Netserve E60 but it only see's 128GB, i'm guessing there are no updates (Bios) to allow me to see the rest of the disk? I noticed others saying they could only use about 30GB so I thought i'd ask as i've gotten away with 128 so far, also I wont be using it as a boot partition, any advice would be good

thanks

Asher,
You'll need a controller card because the E-60 never supported IDE hdds to begin with. Therefore there will be no bios updates to enable larger IDE hdd support.
