Which is the maximum size of a file system in RSX (well, support for 32-bit block numbers do exist, but is not enabled normally, so 24 bit block numbers is the normal limit). Don't make me whip out my ePeen! DRAKE (the 4000/90) has a pair of 146GB disks hanging off of it. I've also got 4x300G disks I'm thinking about putting on it as well. :) I should really see if that thing still boots. I should also replace the battery and find a proper disk enclosure for the disks in it (the SCA-50 adapters make them not fit right) -brian
