TITLE :Hard Disk Space Limitations in Services for Macintosh
PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Windows NT can report an incorrect amount of free disk space when it
communicates with a Macintosh computer because the Macintosh limits the
size of a hard disk to 2GB. Windows NT reports disk space according to the
following algorithm:
- If the size of the hard disk is larger than 2GB, Windows NT reports
the disk as a 2GB disk, otherwise, Windows NT reports the actual
amount.
- If the amount of space used on the hard disk is larger than 2GB,
Windows NT reports 2GB used, otherwise Windows NT reports the
actual amount.
Using this algorithm, Windows NT enables a Macintosh user to access more
than 2GB on a hard disk.
Additional reference words: 3.10 Gigabyte, size, mac
