Rep Power: 8 ![]() | I took the hard drives out of 2 old computers that i was using as slaves, running XP, bought 2 external enclousers independently powered and plugged them in via usb, formatted them but they will only register 122gb,(running Vista Ultimate) both being WD 250 gb ATA runing NTFS. Have been back thru properties as some posts suggest and checked but cannot find answer I would be pleased if any one has an answer as now i look at prices for dedicated external drives and wonder if i did the right thinghttp://www.austech.info/images/smilies/frown.gif regards Allover
