Natively, no. Win98SE does not support anything beyond 64GB partition for
partitioning, diskchecking, and defragmenting. Newer fdisk will do twice
that size for one partition, but the other two things are out the door. I
would investigate aftermarket applications for this at the outset before
even installing such a drive.

I want to purchase a 160GB HDD to use with a new ABIT NF7
v2 motherboard (supports LBA45). The motherboard will
support the 160GB HDD (No hardware limit on HDD). Will
WIN98SE support the HDD? I have read so much vague
information about different barriers in Win98SE concerning
large drives over 137GB, it's makeing my head spin. I can
partition the drive (I plan on it) as needed. What are
the limits of Win98se when it comes to HDD (partitions,
physical disk size etc...)

Thank you,

Jerry
