should be able to go up to the limit which is 137gb i think. higher than that will need a new controller card (which some of the larger hard drives do include)

If you are overclocking your BP6, the question should be "What model of Promise/Maxtor controller am I going ti purchase with my new large drive?" The HPT366 is notorious for trashing large & fast hdisks - that's if you can get it to recognize the drive correctly in the first place. With any degree of overclocking in the picture, this becomes even more of a problem. Spend a little more & get a big boost in performance & reliability with a Promise card.
