I'll be building a new PC in a couple of months time, not sure of final specs, but I'm considering getting an ide drive of 160gb or 200gb - basically, it's over the 137gb(?) that Windows XP originally only recognised. I have an XP Pro CD with SP2 slipsstreamed (got it through MSDN agreement when I was at college for free! :D) and I've been saving it for a new build - just confirming that WinXP with SP2 will recognise larger IDE drives no problem and I won't need to do anything to get it to work?

Thanks for any info!
