Per the readme for the latest danis506:

*** - supposed to work with drive capacities up to 2TiB (OS/2 ADD limit),
tested with drives up to 100GB now

>-- Any considerations for the motherboard connection or BIOS?

Yes, older BIOS's may not support drives of this size correctly.

>-- Any cable considerations?

Just the usual IDE limitations.

Better asked on the os2hardware list. I've always liked Quantum and IBM,
but that's me and I haven't bought much recently.
