Question Can SunBlade 150 support 2 x 160GB hard disk
Hi all,

I am a newbies here,
Have question regards large hard disk install in SunBlade system.
Can SunBlade 150 support 2 x 160GB (internal IDE) ?
Want to make sure before buy the hard disks.

Anyone had experiences configure large hard disk in SunBlade 150 before ?

In the SunBlade 150 datasheet, it only mentions support up to 2 x 80GB, never said 2x 160GB.

Thanks first.

No, the Blade 150 also suffers from the 48-bit LBA barrier and has a 127GB limit.
Therefore 2x 120GB is maximum, even with a PCI IDE controller.

Thanks for you answer.

Now I will try buy 2 x 120GB for the system.
