Hello,
I will be installing FreeBSD on a Dell Dimension Pentium II 466 - I
would like to install some of the following disks below, so that I can
have about 50 GB total disk space.  I have already verified with Dell
that these hard disks are compatible with Dell's hardware.

My questions to you are:
1) Are any or all of these disks compatible with FreeBSD
2) Is there a limit to how big a partition can be within BSD (i.e. - bsd
can see the hardware of a 20gb drive, but can only recognize 7gb of it)

Thanks in advance.
