USB-Harddisk size limitations ?

[flyboy]

I use the WL-500gp (with latest original Firmware) attached via USB is a Samsung 2.5" Notebook Harddisk MP080(80GB)

- The router only access the disk if you made a first partition with less than 40GB (FAT32). Is there a reason for? is there any limitation/restriction ?

- for PowerSave mode of the disk there is a tool from Samsung called HUTIL, but this DOS tool doesn't find my Disk at the USB port, has anyone a good Idea ?
