I don't think so because my motherboard wouldn't recognize 2TB. It only saw it as 1TB. But I have an 1.5TB external and my computer sees it as 1.5TB.

But my motherboard has noted issues with higher capacity hard drives. I'm just waiting on an BIOS update.

I won't be bothering with another USB/firewire caddy. Next thing i'm going for will be a NAS unit with at least 4 x 2TB drives with the ability to link more units together...


when I find the link on what i'm talking about I will edit this post.
