I have an external HD enclosure that can support a HD up to 300GB. If I purchase a 320GB internal HD and put it in my PC and partition it into 2-160GB sectors, then transfer the HD to the external enclosure, will it be able to see both partitions?

TIA

edit: changed 200GB to 300GB

My mistake, it supports up to 300GB. That means it can't read 320GB, but will it read 2-160GB partitions?

If that is indeed the Case (200Gig limit) then it probably won't work as the HD has to be identified as a whole before it can be read split up.
