Chip set: Intel 2560 rev 1

As with any PhoenixBios 4.0 board, max harddrive is 128GB or thereabout, so a seperate add-in controller card with its own bios is needed. http://www.promise.com is the best known brand, there are other (cheaper) ones as well. Your mileage may vary.

Hey thanks alot!!! I have a 120 gig also so ill just install that one anyways thanks againg i am sort of a noob at this hardware stuff softoware os is mostly my domain lol anways
