   Lol, I can understand that :) I've never been much of a game player either..

   I forget what the max is on this box, but 11G seems fine over here...   
   somewhere here we have a box of old drives and yeah those 20 meg drives did   
   their job back then   I think my first system was actually a Leading Edge   
   PC IIRC... with a 20M drive. Boy was that a long time ago :)   
      
   Take care,
