I casually installed a 200 Gig dis on a 4.3-stable freebsd system.  I
quickly followed the directions in
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/disks-
adding.html section "12.3.2.2 Dedicated".  df -g now reports that the
resulting disk is only 124 Gig, so I'm sad and confused.  I expected
some shrinkage, but not quite so much.   ideas?
How current is your motherboard?  If it doesn't support the ATA-6 spec
there's a limit of 120-140GB (don't remember the details.
LBA(aka LBA28) is limited to 128G (Base 2 GB)/137G (Base 10 GB).

LBA48 is the new standard.
