Vista <2TB disk support?

[zegermans]

Hey, I currently am running a 1920GB storage array, partitioned to 150GB for games and the rest for storage. Once I run low, I"m thinking of getting larger capacity HD's and just transfering the info over. I really like the game loading speed I'm getting with this array, but to bump it up, it'll go over that limit. So I'm thinkin, I won't ahve to face this till vista comes out... but will it support booting off of that size of a disk?

Booting off GPT (Giant Partition Tables) are a BIOS issue, if your BIOS can read it (unlikely) then you are fine.

Serious question for the lack of my knowledge: I was under the impression that a GPT is a GUID Partition Table. Not that it really matters...

Please tell me all that space is easily recoverable in case of drive failure...

I suggest you get a seperate boot disk. That way you don't have to worry about whether the BIOS recognizes the 2tb+ volume right at boot; you can get into the OS and let it worry about it.
