[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1451347, member: 8287"] the pre 2008 Mac Pros all use a 32-Bit EFI Firmware and that is what stops Mountain Lion from running. The older video card might also but in the Mac Pro that can be upgraded. Will check on the limit for Hard Drive size and get back to you. Pretty sure you can go 2GB. Just checked, it will do 3TB but the official HD size with Apple is 2TB. Sly, you should know! :D [/QUOTE]
