Hi,
When/if (depending on how the job hunting in the land of the rising sun goes) I go back to Holland I plan on upgrading my trusty old htpc with a 3tb disk to get rid of my collection of too small hdd's.
Problem is, is it going to support 3tb disks? It's a gigabyte board with a amd 780g chipset. It's 5 years old, the latest bios update is from 2010 and the gigabyte 3tb unlocker utility doesnt support anything below the 8xx series so I guess I just anwserd my own question hehe.
But under win7 64bit can't I just partition the drive in 2 parts? I only want to use it for storage anyway so apart from not looking pretty it's not really an issue if I could use the 3tb like that.
