Max VXIpc-850 Hard Drive

[reichenbach]

What is the largest hard drive size supported by the VXIpc-850 BIOS. (and what is the most up to date version of the VXIpc-850 BIOS?)

I am trying to replace a dead hard drive in my VXIpc-850 (5 GB). I dont want to put a another used one due to the likelyhood of it dying.

It looks like I can only buy New 10 GB, 20 GB, 30GB+ drives online.

I would also like to put the biggest hard drive inside of the unit that I can.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,

From the information I have gathered, NI has only tested and supported HDD's that ship with the controller. If you would like to use a larger HDD, you can try this, but know that you may need to partition accordingly. Using a different HDD is not supported by us, but may work.
