Intel 915GAV Board-does it support 2TB

I'm planning to buy

Western Digital (WD) Caviar Black WD2002FAEX 2TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s HDD

So will the 915GAV detect it?
Or i'm gonna face any problems?

Theoretically it should, but practically, it may bottleneck WD black.

WD Black in specific?
So the Green edition same size, will not face any problems ?

I am having one Intel D915 board running with 2TB drive.. Runs fine without any bottleneck or such. But drive I am having is a WD Green.

I"m not concerned about the drive being 2TB, but the drive being WD black.
It is much faster than other drives, and one of the very few drives which really 'needs' 6gbps sata connector.

General operation with GD Green feels no different than a WD Green 1TB running with my sisters home PC running Core i7 .

The system which runs Green 2TB in our office is a system we use for general file storage. We access it many times over Network, works fine for general office usage at-least

There should be no comparison between WD Green & Black.
Just google.
