I am a computer dummy with a question! If you install a new hard drive, is the size automatically detected or does it have to be entered manually? :confused:

Jump to PostIt's automatically detected provided your motherboard supports that size. For example, most older motherboards don't support drives over 80gigs - and some do only wirth a firmware upgrade. Also, make sure you set the drive's jumper settings according to the manual.
