Does XP Recognize 250GB IDE Drives? Rand 08-30-2005

I was considering purchasing XP Pro for the purpose of having it recognize my
larger drive of 250GB. Do any of you folks know if XP Pro recognizes 250GB
drives?

I'm currently running 2000 and the only way it can recognize my 250GB drive
is if I use it as a RAID array.

Thanks all

Yes, XP will recognize that drive.
