Is this the size you always saw, or did they suddenly shrink?
Did you ever see them the proper formatted size? (and)
Where have you looked at them, and were they moved?
In certain vintage systems they might only show up as 8.4G
(or so) and/or 32G (or so...)
Are any cylinder limitation
This is strange...
I've been having problems for a long time on this one PC of mine...
Finally, I decide to reformat/reinstall...
Initially, I had this PC setup with 2 WD 180GB drives in a mirror configuration
This time, I decided to break that and just use both HDs as normal hard drives.
Try wiping the disk with something like AutoClav, or even WDs write
zero utility. Then try again.

I think there is something wrong with that HD that formats to 127 GB

It sounds like a BIOS limitation. Not sure why it would work with
the other drive, though. Have you tried
IIRC, XP-SP1 had the limitation of 127G
and XP-SP2 broke that barrier... 48bit LBA
(Note there are different measurement types
and the numbers might look different...)

It could also be the BIOS if this done in different machines...
What he said. And even in WinXPSP2, if the initially installed drive is less
than 128MB, and you decide to install a larger drive afterwards, you have to
go into the registry to enable 48bitLBA for WinXp to recognize it
correctly. MS fault. Install XPSP2 and you should have no problems.

Drives were installed in Jan, Compaq with winME. one drive system, other drive
for backing up with Duocor Xactcopy.
Drives were seen full size and working fine in Jan. Lady called and said she
was getting out of space messages. Bios sees the drives full size, WD

What power supply are you using? Surely the SLI'd 8800GTS draw a lot of power.

Well Chris, seems as though you get your hands on most hardware so ..
Wondering if you have played around with a dual Xeon 2.8 or 3.0Gb and the
Core2 4600 or so and if so have any comments regarding performance for video
rendering and heavy, heavy multitasking between the two?
Thanks

One reason we went with GTS is that GTX would have put us into a larger PS,
900w I think? This would also mean that air cooling probably wouldn't have
been adequate. When we added up the increased price from GTS to GTX (x2
due to sli), the larger PS and adding liquid cooling, the relatively
