I've thought about that but I came across and apple tech note saying computers built before 2002 don't have a boot rom that supports larger volumes. It's not a huge deal since I'm looking to move these drives over to a raid 5 network box in a month or two and I bought them this large for that purpose.

I need 1.21 jiggabytes of room for my new flux capacitor design.

Run for it Marty, It's the Libyans!!
