Master: MAXTOR 91303D6
Slave: MAXTOR 6L060J3

My problem is that the slave is 60Gb, but FDisk, BIOS, and XP only see 31.4Gb.
Can anyone tell me what might be wrong?
i have deleted the partion and started over, and tat doesn't help.
S.M.A.R.T. is enabled.

Cheers!
Matt :)

hello.
Did you set AUTO detect in BIOS.

Your problem is BIOS doesn't support HDD biger then 32GB. Your BIOS is AWARD. Go to Manufacturer web page and download latest BIOS (if your are lucky)
If you need more help e-mail me.
