Hello,

Just a quick question...

A while back, I remember someone having a problem with a 12 GB Bigfoot IDE
drive and FBSD not being able to see it.

I am thinking of purchasing 17+ GB drives (20 or 25 GB is a possibility),
and was wondering as long as the BIOS on my machine sees it correctly,
will FBSD have a problem with it? 

If you are wondering, I want mass storage, and IDE is much cheaper when
you aren't concerned with speed...

Thanks in advance!
