Building my first HTPC, quick question

I am building my first HTPC, the main reason I am doing this is because I have about 150 dvds and I want to play them from one easy place. Ive already started ripping them to an external hard drive but on the 29th of this month im going to go and grab something similar to this:

Now my question is, does XBMC live or will XBMCbuntu support these requirements by the hard drive I am looking at?

Quote:As a Data Drive - A data drive greater than or equal to 2.2TB requires an operating system that supports long LBA addressing, such as Windows 7, a GUID partition table (GPT) and HDD drivers that support 2.2TB drives. As a Boot Drive - In addition to the requirements for a data drive, a Windows boot drive requires an EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) BIOS and a 64-bit version of Windows Vista or Windows 7. Linux does not require an EFI BIOS.

I will be using 1 as a boot drive and 1 as a data drive.
