Hard drive integrity if cmos incorrect

by cedricfisher . Updated 23 years, 7 months ago

We have some older systems that need hard drive replacements. The only drives available are to large for the cmos bios settings. We will be buying larger hard drives and configuring the coms settings so that the system sees it as a smaller drive. Wedo not want to upgrade the bios (requires re-validation effort). The question now is: ‘Can anyone point me to hard data (something in print some where) that the drives will function properly or that the drives are destined for data integrity issues’?
