[14 Jul 2007]

ELBOX COMPUTER is pleased to announce LBA-48 addressing support in new 4xEIDE'99 buffered interfaces. LBA-48 support is necessary for handling disks over 128GB, which are currently a smalest hard drive on the market.

The update will include new versions of:
• 4xEIDE.driver
• 4xEIDEPrefs
• AllegroCDFS

Changes:
4xEIDE.driver ver. 4.0
- LBA-48 support

4xEIDEPrefs ver. 4.0
- NOSPLIT and RESIDENT are now the default options

AllegroCDFS ver.3.6
- improvement in reading CDs with surface defects
