Default Re: New HD ??

The limitation you are thinking about is the one for pre SP1 systems (about
137 GB). With SP1 or later installed or an installation CD with SP1 or
later (and LBA 48 turned on) there is virtually unlimited hard drive space
available.

See Bob Willards post for the total hard drive space on one drive that SP 1
or later versions of XP will address. And that is on one physical hard
drive.
