    I remember when I got my forst 120gb drive. I happily installed it on my win 2k and… bios didn’t like it, OS didn’t like it and read its capacity wrong. I forget if I used windows or linux but after I cut the drive into 2x60gb it worked great

      I was already sick of this shit the first time I saw a 1GB harddisk, a Quantum Bigfoot using a 5.25" form factor. Massive thing. Could fit a whole day of a comprehensive USENET feed.
