Thanks, Drucker-- Drucker These are the Asus "general" resources. The third link is to some older motherboards and patched BIOS that improve their capabilities. Motherboard manuals seldom address an issue like this directly. http://www.asus.it/support/english/t...hdd/index.aspx (modern) http://www.asuscom.de/support/FAQ/fa...gb_ide_hdd.htm (older) http://web.inter.nl.net/hcc/J.Steunebrink/k6plus.htm (patched BIOS) The first link, lists the CUV4X-CME and CUV4X-V. But doesn't list the CUV4X. The second link refers to CUxxx as only up to 128GB. Looking on the Germany ftp site, the CUV4X family is divided into different directories, implying there is some difference between a vanilla CUV4X, and the others. It could be, that the members of the CUV4X family use different steppings of the 686A Southbridge, and that accounts for differences between them. Contains CUV4X-C,CUV4X-D,CUV4X-DLS,CUV4X-E,CUV4X-LS,CUV4X-M,CUV4X-ME ftp://ftp.asuscom.de/pub/ASUScom/bio...ollo_Pro_133A/ Contains CUV4X-V ftp://ftp.asuscom.de/pub/ASUScom/bio...oSavage_PM133/ Contains CUV4X ftp://ftp.asuscom.de/pub/ASUScom/bio...ollo_Pro_133Z/ Based on that skimpy evidence, I think your plain CUV4X is good up to 128GB, so a 120GB drive will be usable for its entire capacity. You will need the appropriate BIOS update to make that happen. Why not contact Asus tech support and seek verification ? HTH, Paul |
