    Good question. I got a 400gb drive a month ago thinking I was going to have all this great storage space... but have been searching for a solid installation guide for a drive this big. Everywhere I go -- it seems people start having problems with anything over 300gb.

    I guess the problem is that the FAT file system is not set-up to handle large partitions. Anyone had success with large hard drives?
