hi,

I'd like to replace the 4x 1.5TB WD drives in my atom-based NAS-like
server with 4x 3TB ones - the SATA controller is a Promise TX4 300.
will this controller be able to handle 3TB disks? (not eager to find
out the hard way).

If not, which (inexpensive) PCI SATA controllers would you recommend?

tnx in advance.
