40Gb HDD has only 20Gb space

Re: 40Gb HDD has only 20Gb space

Hi All,
It worked out A-OK!!
The trick was indeed to connect these drives to another PC on a IDE bus and from there in the device config menu I could set the drive to it's native size.
I now have 5- 40GB HD's instead of 4- 20's and 1- 40!!
Thanks for all your help.
Never realized that after all it was not that complicated.
Cheers, Joseph.

Hi Agent 24,
The most important bit was to connect the drives to an IDE port and than run the program.
Once there it was indeed edit the HPA and set it to it's native value and done.
Thanks.
