1 TB Hard Drive recognized?
I have an ASUS P4P800-SE mobo.
I have been using an external USB 500GB HD with no problem. Will this board recognize these new 1 Terrabyte external USB Hard Drives as well? Thank you. |

Where the difficulty may come is if you try to swap a 500GB drive with a 1TB drive in an external USB2 enclosure, as whether it will work is dependent on the firmware within the USB enclosure itself, and is not related to the motherboard.

I think i've got the same problem with my K8S-MX board. If my 1TB USB drive is plugged in while booting, it stopps at the moment where it looks for all connected USB drives. What could i do, what should/could be updated. CU, Karsten -- Wenn man in dem Wort Mama 4 Buchstaben austauscht erhalt man das Wort Bier! |

I contacted Seagate and they sent me a new drive which has not had that problem. |

CU, Karsten Mine worked exactly the same. It took me a little time to decide the problem was the drive as it worked perfectly except when booting. After replacing the drive I didn't have any further problems with the drive being connected while booting. |
