I have a 500G IDE.  I think HPFS has been limited to maybe 50-64G in my 
past attempts.  So I tried FAT32.  I did a single partition, 5x100, 
10x50 and settled on 3 about equal.  They all seemed to read and write OK.

It is in my storage box which is running W4.  I copied a bunch of JPG 
and video files over the P-P and all seemed OK.  I then tried to copy 
the video files to another of the three partitions.  Some of the files 
are over 1G.  I get transfer rates of 1M BPS, and any of several file 
managers is likely to freeze or close if I select more than one file at 
a time.

All my HDDs are front panel plug in.  I plugged it into my primary 
machine and booted W2K to see if maybe it's FAT32 was any better.  It 
does not see any of the drive.

Is all this to be expected?

TY
Ray
