Pls.excuse me if I'm intruding,I have a question,it may be a little
off-topic,but since I read the 2 lines above I have no peace finding
out this :
- What relation is between the microprocessor,the number of bits of
the computer (or microprocessors) highways and the maximum disk size
that the microprocessor can access ( see ) ?
- I'm asking this because I read somewhere that a certain micro.,not
remember now what it was,could not access ( see ) more than 4GB.
- So I suppouse that I can't access with a 286 ,say a 10GB disk.
- Happily,I own a Intel-Pentium-133MHz.Would he "see" a 10GB disk if
I'll buy one ?
please enlight me.
