I recently replaced an old 4gb secondary HDD with a newer 160GB HDD (Samsung SP1604N/R).
Both WinXP and the BIOS (Phoenix Award) show the HDD capacity as 33 GB!!
Why?? I have swapped HDD’s many other times on other machines without ever seeing this. My primary HDD is 80 GB so I would think that the BIOS would recognize at least the same capacity. I do have the secondary HDD on the second channel with the DVD/RW drive the same way that I had the previous dive hooked up.
I’m sure that someone out there has seen this happen before and I would appreciate any assistance or insight that you could provide.
