I have an Asus A7V with a 750 thunderbird...I was just curious can it handle the new 100 gb drives or do I need to do anything like get the new revision of the bios? Any help would be most appreciated! Thanks,

You can have as big as your money can buy.

I have an old pentium 233mhz system with Phoenix bios. The bios can only recognize around 8gb of harddisk space. I just got a 40gb maxtor harddrive yesterday and according to the manual this is the way it is. In order for me to use the entire 40gb I could either use the software provided with the drive or simply install an OS. I simply installed win2000 and it did the partitioning and formattnig for me. I didn't have to configure the bios or use fdisk. And get this, I can use the entire 40gb.
 
127GB natively, more if you purchase an adapter card with support for 48 bit LBA logical ATA commands, or a future BIOS provides support.
