Does this mean that if I try to use a 9.1G SCSI drive on a 2940UW controller, it's not going to work? I thought that there weren't any size limitations/issues when using SCSI. Comments welcome. -- Elliot (efinley@efinley.com) "The box said 'Requires Windows 95, NT, or better,' so I installed FreeBSD."
