FWIW, the boot partition on my laptop is 16.8G. Gotta love Win2K.


>I was thinking of NTFS. I don't think you can go that high on the boot partition. Sheesh, I was just debating this in the 073 refresh and can't remember what the restrictions were.

>>Boot can be 4GB as FAT (not the same as DOS/Win9x FAT16 behavior, but entirely true!), or up to 7.8GB with NTFS and drivers that support it (updated ATAPI and IDE drivers came out with either SP4 or 5, and details on how to are online at www.ntfaq.com) and Win2K can be...big.

>>NTFS can in theory be in the exabyte range, and both Compaq and John Hancock Storage Systems (now deceased) have both demo'd multi-TB RAID implementations - MS used one of Compaq's for a SQL Server proof-of-concept project that they showed a couple years ago.
