Hi All,

Recently I bought a 320 GB Hard Disk of Seagate. I want to do the casing and make it USB enable. Will all the Operating System recognise it? Because recently I faced the problem with WIN 2000 Prof. It detected only 128 GB. So, I'm planning to make it external hard idsk with USB port.

well break it in to partitions as u can make a 320NTFS partiton then u would face problem in 98 based systems... and many branded company sells 320GB external USB HDD which is supported by Windows 2k SP4... so it sould support...

Thanks... Yesterday I did the casing of my 320 GB HDD. My OS (WIN 2000 Prof) is recognising it.... :)
