I am not sure if you have receivced your answer. But put
a 160 gb in yesterday. It is a Maxtor and it came with
Maxblaster 3. I was very impressed with it, because not
only did it format the drive to the mas space it
transferred my files from my boot drive as well. I did
take about a couple of hours for the entire process. Yet
I must admit to take almost 60 gb of info and 2 other
partitions in 2 two hours is a far trade. Try going to
maxtor.com and download maxblaster3. You may have to use
a bois update (I doubt this option) or get a hardware
solution. However, there should be a problem if any at
the 137 gb threshold not the 120 gb. Get back with me to
let me know the outcome.
