[plug] 10g drives

[Weirdo]

Nice trick is to input the HDD values manual into the bios up to the bios 
limit. I have a 80Gb drive that I boot from with a BIOS limit of 30GB. I 
put the 30GB limit jumper onto the HDD and did a bios auto detect, I then 
saved the settings and removed the jumper. Computer  boots fine.

Who said you can't trick the BIOS?
