Hi,

I've got a Matsonic MS8308Ep motherboard with one 60Gb and one 10GB HD and I am looking to upgrade the 10GB HD. However, I'm unsure what size HD the BIOS supports. Checked the Matsonic web site but no readme file in the updated BIOS. Also I'm a bit wary of flashing the BIOS after a failure and dead PC last time.
So, does anyone have any info regarding the largest HD size that the following BIOS version for this mobo supports?

BIOS Manufacturer : American Megatrends
BIOS ID: 62-0912-001437-00101111-071595-SiS730S
BIOS Date: 09/12/01
BIOS ROM Size : 256K
Chipset : SiS730 rev 2

Thanks,
Joe

An AMI BIOS of that date should support up to 128 GiB (137 GB).
