what do you mean by storage? If you want to mean the hard disk capacity, then you should keep in mind that hard disk depends on interfaces like IDE,EIDE,SATA,SATAII and their rpm. The capacity handling is done by the system Operating System and currently Windows Xp supports NTFS file system so the current capacity being supproted is 1Terabyte.
