Hi,

FYI, we just bought a 40GB maxtor and the asus p2b-ls we placed it in could not
probe it properly in the BIOS, in fact it hung completely.  Upgrading to
BIOS 1011 fixed that, but have yet to try installing any software...

Maxtor includes a little piece of paper warning that many BIOS can't handle
more than 32GB.
