We are in the process of installing a new W2K server. We have heard from one of our competitors that Adobe Photo shop has limitations on seeing data on large raids (1.0 Terabyte & larger). The server we are about to install is a 1.7 Terabyte server and our concern is that our adobe users will not be able to see data past the 1.0 limitation. We have talked with Adobe Sales, support and support supervisors and no one is able to give us an answer other then "most business do not store their data on servers so they are not able to answer the question". We currently use Adobe Photo shop various versions 5.5 – CS, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Acrobat Standard. The Adobe software is installed on the users work stations – 2000 – XP, and the data (jpg, jpe,pdf, tiff, psd, bmp are stored on the server. Does anyone know of this size limitation and does this impact all adobe products or just photo shop.

Any assistance anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve heard that’s fixed in CS (from Chris Cox, one of the developers).

Have only one version of CS the rest are on 5.5, 6.0. Will this only be a problem for the older versions? And what about Illustrator

Thanks.

Yes, it is a problem for versions of Photoshop older than CS.

And it is not a problem reading – just saving to a volume over 1 Terrabyte.

It might be a problem for Illustrator (since the bug is in a Microsoft API), but I don’t think so because they don’t check the available disk space before saving.
