>fat32 has a 8tb limit in theory but xp only goes to 32gb with fat32 and anything larger has to be ntfs. i don't know for sure if 98 is the same but i would have to presume that it is at best. ntfs can in theory support 256tb but about 16tb is the normal, this all depends on the cluster size though.
Oh, I see. I didn't know that XP had this limit. And how about Windows 98? Can that handle larger partitions? (The limit, in any case, is for a partition, not for a hard disk, AFAIK.)
