BigDisk by Janos Farkas

jaesonk · 08 November 2017, 21:29

I'm looking for BigDisk by Janos Farkas, release through Arthur Wilkins LTD. This was a patch to allow larger than 4GB drives. There are other solutions to that 4GB barrier problem, but BigDisk is the only one that works with MovieShop. Thanks.

No, it's not. You just shouldn't ignore replies to your posts: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?...59#post1045059

That's embarrassing. Thank you for this information.

I will try out splitdisk, but the readme says:

"This software is BETA ! It is full of bugs and it can help you loose all data on your HDD. Handle with care, you have been warned !!"

I am still interested in finding BigDisk though, so if anyone has it or contact info for the author, let me know.
