Dear friends:
Anyone knows the maximum size the Pismo can "see", I'm planning to buy an external Firewire HD and don't want to buy a 200Gb disk if it would not bee seen by the machine.
Thanks in advance,
Javier
It will work. I hooked up large disks via Firewire to an 8600, which is four years older than the Pismo (and my Pismo), so I don't see why not. Windows has problems with some drives, but only internal ones. ATA-66 controllers cannot see larger ATA-133 drives because of the design of ATA-66. The only case where you would need to really worry is if you are swapping out the internal drive.
