After two years since I sold my E6400, I picked one up once again and loaded EOS 4.7 on it which so far works fine. But what is the max. IDE harddisk size it supports ? Is it possible that is has no limit as long as you format it as FAT ? :rolleyes:

gilwe - once upon a time I put an 80Gb drive in my E5000 with EOS4.7 without problems. I think the limit for EOS4.7 is something like 128Gb (or 137Gb depending on the math used) because that hardware/firmware came out when the ATA interface addressing limit was 28-bit. Newer computers/BIOS/OSes can handle 48-bit addressing making the max hard drive size a lot bigger...

 

Thanks!

I came across this ad, so I guess 120Gb is the limit indeed... will try to put one in today ;)

 

 

includes: e4xt ultra, huge 120gb internal ide hard drive, glyph scsi cd rom, external scsi 500mb hard drive, pro cables, 8 emu iii cds, the fantastic 2 cd emu production series. i paid ~$4,385 total, but sell for a only $950! please email: gharaviad@hotmail.com. e4xt specs: - 128mb ram - 128 voice polyphony - 32 midi channels - 120gb internal ide hard drive (upgraded from 3.2gb) - aes/ebu digital in/out, switchable to s/pdif - wordclock in/out - 8 symmetric analog-outs - scsi connector - 2 24bit stereo effect processors - eos 4.7 installed (supports fat) the e4xt ultra, as a dedicated hardware sampler had 1000%+ better performance and reliable than emulator x.
