The mdd's have large drive support, they are not affected by any hard drive limit. I am not sure though if os9 has a hd size limit. If it does you will just need to partition using os9 and make sure that os 9 will be able to see both partitions. Then you can install 10. Just make sure to install 9 FIRST and do NOT format the hd using 10 because 9 won't recognize it.-Jonas
